Bronchial Tissue With COPD Model

COPD is a name for serious pulmonary diseases which cause a narrowing of the bronchial tissue, causing blockages that make it difficult to breathe. The Bronchial Tissue With COPD Model demonstrates a variety of bronchial tissues, from healthy tissues to those with COPD after medication administration. This great study tool also comes with access to the 3B Smart Anatomy app.

What's Included?

• 1 x Four-Tiered Bronchial Tissue Model
• 1 x Display Base

How Does This Model Demonstrate COPD in Bronchial Tissues?

COPD, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, is a term for respiratory conditions involving a narrowing of the airways in the lungs, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis. This model demonstrates the changes in the bronchial tissues in four parts, from bottom to top, including:

• Normal condition bronchial tissue (bottom of model)
• Abnormal mucous secretion, thickening of the bronchial mucosa
• Permanent damage
• After administration of medication (top of model)

Though medication can ease the symptoms it cannot fully cure the condition (as seen on the top level of bronchial tissue on the model).

What Can I See On This Bronchial Tissue Model?

The four-tiered model displays the bronchial tissue in various states of COPD development. Specific features of the bronchial tissue featured on this model include:

• Lumen
• Respiratory mucosal layer
• Muscular layer
• Mucus

Who Is This COPD Model For?

This COPD Model is ideal for teaching and studying purposes, particularly in biology and anatomy classes. It's also ideal for patient education on the impact of emphysema and chronic bronchitis. It is an effective training tool for:

• Doctors and Nurses
• Pulmonologists
• Personnel working in the respiratory medicine field
• Anatomists and Comparative Anatomists

Are There Any Digital Study Tools Available With This Model?

Most 3B Scientific models offer access to the 3B Smart Anatomy app, where you can see a virtual version of the model and find a range of digital study tools. This enables further study on a smartphone, tablet, or desktop device.

To access this digital content, simply download and register an account with the 3B Smart Anatomy App, then scan the QR-code that can be found on your anatomical model. To find the correct app, you can scan the QR code before download, and follow the on-screen instructions. Features of the virtual anatomy study content include:

• Rotate and zoom functioning for a clearer view of smaller elements
• Highlighting of hotspots/key areas on the anatomical model
• An Anatomy Quiz to test and improve anatomical understanding
• Drawing function to enable customisation, with the option to share the results with others
• Notes function to help with personal learning or act as a guide during training
• Easy to access both online and offline
• Availability in 11 languages
