Puerperal Uterus Palpation Training Model (Wearable type)

This is a model that can be used to examine postpartum uterine involution, and can be worn by a person or a mannequin. The model represents the state of uterine involution up to 5 days postpartum. The model can be worn by a person to practice postpartum care, including communication training.
