Custom LifeLike Tissue Sheets for Surgical Training and Testing

The LifeLike Tissue Sheet Selector allows surgical educators, clinicians, researchers and medical device teams to select a synthetic tissue material and thickness matched to their specific training or testing requirements.

Choose from 15 simulated tissue materials and nine available thicknesses. Every sheet measures approximately 6 × 5 inches and is manufactured to order in the selected configuration.

The tissue sheets provide a practical platform for surgical suturing, incision, dissection, tissue handling, closure techniques, device evaluation and procedural simulation.

How to Configure Your Tissue Sheet

1. Select the required Tissue Material.
2. Select the required Sheet Thickness.
3. Add the configured tissue sheet to your order.

Training and Testing Applications

Depending on the selected material and thickness, the Tissue Sheet Selector can support:

• Surgical incision practice
• Basic and advanced suturing
• Simple interrupted sutures
• Continuous suturing
• Mattress suturing techniques
• Subcuticular closure
• Tissue dissection
• Layered closure exercises
• Fine tissue handling
• Patch repair simulation
• Biopsy and excision practice
• Instrument handling and procedural demonstrations
• Medical device testing and evaluation
• Prototype development and product demonstrations

Choosing the Correct Thickness

Thinner sheets are generally suitable for delicate tissue handling and fine suturing exercises. Thicker sheets provide greater depth and resistance for dissection, deeper closure and device-testing applications.

The correct selection depends on the tissue being simulated, the intended surgical procedure and the required handling characteristics.

If you are uncertain which material or thickness to choose, contact SurgiSim with details of the procedure, instruments and training objective.

Use with a Tissue Mounting Pad

For a stable working surface, the selected sheet can be combined with the Tissue Mounting Pad .

The mounting pad helps position compatible tissue sheets during cutting, dissection, suturing and instrument-handling exercises.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is each tissue sheet?

Every tissue sheet measures approximately 6 × 5 inches, equivalent to approximately 15.2 × 12.7 cm.

How do I order the correct tissue sheet?

Select both the required Tissue Material and Thickness from the available product options before adding the item to your basket.

Which thickness should I choose?

The correct thickness depends on the intended tissue, procedure and training objective. Thinner sheets are generally selected for delicate tissue handling, while thicker sheets provide greater depth and resistance.

Is fascia available in every thickness?

No. Fascia material is not available in 1.2 mm or 1.6 mm thicknesses.

Can the tissue sheets be sutured and dissected?

Yes. The sheets are intended for surgical training applications including cutting, incision, dissection, suturing and closure exercises.

Is a mounting base included?

No mounting base is assumed to be included. A compatible Tissue Mounting Pad can be purchased separately.

Are surgical instruments and sutures included?

Instruments and sutures should be ordered separately unless they are specifically included within your quotation.

Can I request a material or size that is not listed?

If the required material or thickness is not shown, contact SurgiSim with details of the intended procedure and specification so that a custom enquiry can be assessed.
