The Cardiff TonsillectomEase trainer
This model provides practice of placing a Boyle-Davis gag, and the use of tools and a head light. It is adjustable for tonsil-tying practice at a variety of depths with different vessel sizes and conditions (e.g. bleeding). Lastly, basic objective feedback without significant technical challenges is possible.
