The Thigh Packing Wound (Thigh Wound Packing Trainer) by Safeguard Medical SIMBODIES is a high-fidelity, prosthetic-grade silicone task trainer that simulates a deep, actively bleeding thigh injury for hands-on wound packing and hemorrhage control training. Featuring entry/exit gunshot wound and abrasion simulation with two bleeding tubes and a manual blood pump, it delivers the tactile resistance of real tissue to build proper packing technique. Available in Dark (TR0392-01), Tan (TR0392-02), and Light (TR0392-03) skin tones.

Product Overview
Thigh wounds from firearms, shrapnel, and industrial accidents represent one of the most common and immediately life-threatening hemorrhage scenarios in both combat and civilian trauma settings. The femoral artery and its branches make the thigh a high-risk zone for exsanguinating hemorrhage, and the correct management sequence — tourniquet application proximal to the wound, followed by deep wound packing for through-and-through injuries — must be practiced to be reliably executed under stress. The SIMBODIES Thigh Wound Packing Trainer is designed to provide exactly that practice environment.
The trainer is shaped and sized to anatomically replicate the human thigh, with prosthetic-grade platinum silicone that matches the resistance and compliance of actual tissue during packing. The dual-wound design — an entry/exit gunshot wound with a large internal cavity, plus a superficial deep oval abrasion — allows instruction in both through-and-through packing technique and surface wound management within a single training aid. The two bleeding tubes, activated by the manual blood pump, create an active hemorrhage simulation that gives trainees immediate feedback on the effectiveness of their packing technique.
Each trainer ships with the thigh silicone model, bleeding tube assembly, one manual blood pump, and a canvas holdall for transport and storage. The washable construction supports repeat use across multiple training cohorts. Trainers recommend using a floor blood concentrate mixed with warm water for the most realistic bleeding simulation; the canvas holdall contains spill and simplifies field cleanup. Each unit is handmade in the UK, so slight dimensional variations from catalog images are inherent to the craft-manufacturing process.
Simulated Wound Types
| Wound | Description | Primary Training Application |
|---|---|---|
| Entry/Exit GSW | Through-and-through gunshot wound with large internal cavity | Deep wound packing, hemostatic gauze placement, cavity hemorrhage control |
| Superficial Oval Abrasion | Deep surface abrasion injury | Direct pressure technique, dressing application |
