Gluteal Intramuscular Injection Model
Description
Description
Gluteal Intramuscular Injection Model with Bones
Made from hyper-realistic MedicSkin®, the Ventogluteal injection model with bones is a popular choice for intramuscular (IM) injection practice.
This model contains a simulated bone beneath the gluteus medius so you can simulate complications arising from the incorrect performance of the injection procedure.
Learn how to give an IM Intramuscular Injection ventrogluteal buttock muscle.
The ventrogluteal butt muscle (buttocks) has been the site most commonly selected by healthcare providers for many years because of the large size of the muscle.
You can easily feel the thighbone and the hip, (Iliac and greater trochanter of the femur) and practise the injection into the muscle.
This product is one of the best products on the market to help learners to do IM injection in the hip.
Features of the Gluteal IM Injection Model:
-
Realistic feel of the Illiac and Greater Trochanter bones
-
Injectable with liquid and mould-resistant
-
Non-staining material
Practise the Gluteal IM Injection Procedure
Where is the Ventrogluteal site?
The ventrogluteal intramuscular injection site is located at the top of the hip. To locate it, you place the palm of your hand the part of the femur (thigh bone) that protrudes. Place your index finger on the anterior iliac crest of the femur and spread your middle and index finger away from each other. The injection site is in the middle of the “V” that is created when this is done. To find this site, you’ll need to know your anatomy quite well and ensure you are placing your hands in the correct location. For this reason, only trained professionals should perform injections.
Why is the Ventrogluteal site preferred?
The ventrogluteal site is considered one of the least uncomfortable sites to administer an injection because it is one of the areas of human anatomy with the most fat. Secondly, there are no nerves or large blood vessels close to the site so there is less risk of complications.
What happens if a needle hits a bone?
A needle that is too long, or incorrectly inserted can penetrate the muscle, hitting the bone. Although the patient will not feel considerable pain from their bone being hit, the vaccine might not fully absorb into the muscle, leading to a reduced immune response.
What are the four IM injection sites?
Where should an intramuscular (IM) injection be given? Nurses learn there are four possible sites: the upper arm (deltoid); thigh (vastus lateralis); upper outer posterior buttock (gluteus maximus), also referred to as the dorsogluteal site; and the lateral hip (gluteus medius), also called the ventrogluteal site.

Let customers speak for us
If i could give it 4.5 I would but I'm much more inclined to say I'm happy with this product. Really good quality, excellent resource for my vet suturing practice. I have a mild complaint about the silk sutures, they rip/ fray more easily than I hoped, but easily rectified by buying new ones (which are cheap) and also encourages me to be more gentle with my knots. I'm so happy with it and it's a perfect still revising break from studying. Thank you Sim and Skills!!!
Student Feedback: Feedback was gathered from 13 students. Overall, they liked the trainer and would recommend it to their peers for learning blood glucose testing. They found the trainer easy to use and helpful in demonstrating the procedure. The students felt that the trainer added significant value to their training, with the main benefit being an increased competency in blood glucose testing.
Lecturer Feedback: Feedback was collected from 7 lecturers. Most of them found the trainer to be authentic and effective in simulating the challenges of blood sugar testing. They appreciated that it encouraged patient communication, which is a great plus. The product was of good quality and reliable for teaching purposes. However, there was a minor issue with the finger becoming leaky after multiple uses. Despite this, the lecturers agreed that the trainer prepares students well for real-world blood glucose testing.
Excellent service and speedy delivery. Highly recommended
Brilliant teaching aid. Lots of useful equipment within set. Excellent for practice.
Amazing product
As a proud owner of a Sim & Skills Foot & Ankle model, I thought it was time I invested in a Hand & Wrist.
My clients find it really helpful when we are discussing anatomy and it really aids their recovery.
I believe client education and knowing that your body is something to be enjoyed, not feared, is such an important platform for recovery from chronic pain.
This item is very useful for NG insertion training, it can be used in a horizontal position and the fluid bag does not leak out. The bag and tubing can all be stored within the head making storage of the item easy. It is very simple to use and the head is strong and durable
Purchased these bags for training with venepuncture and so far very pleased with quality and cost
Fast delivery, excellent communication and a great price
Excellent fast service. Thank you.
