The Prostate Examination Trainer is used in medical simulation and clinical training for the
demonstration and practice of digital rectal examinations (DRE). The trainer includes 4 different
prostates to train professional palpation methods (side position or bent forward) and diagnostic
skills associated with rectal examinations.
The index finger is inserted into the rectum, facilitating palpation of the rear part of the prostate,
where the majority of prostate carcinomas are found. The shape, position and consistency of the
prostate are assessed, allowing irregularities, induration and nodes on the otherwise smooth surface
of the prostate to be felt.

The following stages are included:

• Normal prostate
• Advanced prostate carcinoma
• Prostate carcinoma at an early stage
• Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)

For reference and self-control, the trainer also includes the corresponding transrectal sonographic
imaging (transrectal ultrasound, TRUS) for each stage. While in use, the prostate and the
sonographic images are hidden and cannot be seen by the trainee.
The compact shape of the DRE Trainer makes it easy to store and the perfect skill trainer for every
medical simulation lab.
