The significance of the lumbar puncture model for newborns

The neonatal lumbar puncture model is an indispensable teaching tool in neonatal care and clinical skills training. Its significance lies in providing a safe and controllable practical practice platform for medical staff. The model is designed based on the real anatomical proportions of the lumbar vertebrae and surrounding tissues of newborns, clearly presenting the positions of the lumbar vertebral body, intervertebral space and spinal canal, enabling learners to accurately understand the operation path and key anatomical landmarks.

In teaching and training, this model can be used to practice the position placement, puncture positioning, needle insertion Angle and depth control of lumbar puncture operations, helping medical staff familiarize themselves with technical key points and improve the accuracy and safety of the operation. Through repeated practice, the risks of nerve damage, bleeding or puncture failure in real neonatal operations can be effectively reduced, while enhancing the clinical confidence of medical staff. The neonatal lumbar puncture model is also applicable to skills assessment, clinical teaching and teaching demonstration, making lumbar puncture teaching more intuitive, safe and efficient, and has important teaching and clinical application value.
