TraumaSim's Ulcer — Small is a self-adhesive silicone wound prosthetic presenting a compact ulcer wound — a smaller-format chronic wound suitable for training wound assessment and management skills across a range of ulcer presentations where a localised, contained wound scale is clinically appropriate.
The small format fills a practical gap in ulcer simulation coverage. The leg ulcer variants — Arterial, Venous, Mixed, and Neuropathic — present ulcer wounds at a scale consistent with established chronic wounds on the lower limb. The Ulcer Small presents a more compact wound profile suited to early-stage or smaller ulcerations, pressure injuries on bony prominences, digital or toe ulcers, minor wound breakdown sites, and any clinical scenario where a smaller but clinically significant ulcerative wound presentation is the appropriate casualty profile.
It also serves as a practical supplementary wound for programs that need additional ulcer quantity — applying multiple small ulcer prosthetics to different body regions on a single patient simulation creates a more complex, multi-site chronic wound presentation relevant to patients with systemic disease, poor wound healing, or multiple concurrent wound management requirements. That kind of multi-wound clinical scenario develops the assessment and prioritisation skills that caring for complex chronic wound patients in real practice demands.
At 11 cm x 11 cm x 0.2 cm, the compact square format and thin profile apply cleanly to a wide range of body surfaces — bony prominences, toe dorsum, heel margins, sacrum, and lower leg — giving instructors flexibility in wound site placement across different clinical scenario designs. The low 0.2 cm profile keeps the prosthetic flat and unobtrusive while still presenting sufficient wound face detail for realistic wound assessment at clinical examination distance.
Manufactured from durable, life-like silicone with tapered edges that blend naturally onto skin or manikin surfaces. Hand painted — minor variation in appearance between units should be expected.
All TraumaSim silicone wounds are self-adhesive, washable, and reusable.
Available in 11 skin tones: 00 Porcelain, 01 Light, 02 Medium, 03 Olive, 04 Medium Olive, 05 Rosy, 06 Warm Rosy, 07 Warm Tan, 08 Tan, 09 Dark Tan, and 10 Dark. Commonly requested tones are held in standard stock; others are manufactured to order — contact TacMed Australia before ordering if a specific tone is required.
- Compact ulcer wound format: 11 cm x 11 cm — suited to early-stage or smaller ulcerations, digital and toe ulcers, bony prominence breakdown, and minor wound sites where a localised presentation is clinically appropriate.
- Versatile body surface placement: Low-profile 0.2 cm depth applies cleanly to bony prominences, toe dorsum, heel margins, sacrum, and lower leg — high placement flexibility for varied clinical scenario design.
- Multi-site wound simulation: Multiple small ulcer prosthetics across a single patient simulation create complex, multi-site chronic wound presentations for advanced assessment and prioritisation training.
- Supplements the full aetiology-specific ulcer range: Adds wound scale variation to ulcer training alongside the larger Arterial, Venous, Mixed, and Neuropathic variants.
- Self-adhesive silicone construction: Applies directly to skin or manikin surfaces without additional adhesives.
- Tapered edges: Blend naturally into the surrounding surface for seamless presentation.
- Durable and reusable: Washable construction designed for repeated clinical skills training use.
- 11 skin tones available: Commonly requested tones held in stock; others manufactured to order.
What wound does this simulate?
A small, localised ulcer wound — suitable for early-stage or contained ulcerations, digital and toe ulcers, wound breakdown at bony prominences, and any clinical scenario where a smaller but clinically significant ulcerative wound presentation is the appropriate casualty profile.
How does this differ from the aetiology-specific ulcer variants?
The Arterial, Venous, Mixed, and Neuropathic ulcer prosthetics present aetiology-specific wound characteristics at a scale consistent with established chronic lower limb ulcers. The Ulcer Small presents a compact, non-aetiology-specific wound format suited to smaller wound presentations, early-stage ulceration, and digital or bony prominence sites. It supplements the full aetiology range rather than replacing any specific variant.
What body surfaces is this best suited to?
Bony prominences — sacrum, heels, malleoli, toe tips, and dorsum — where small pressure-related wound breakdown commonly occurs, as well as lower leg sites where early-stage or small chronic ulcers may present. The 11 cm x 11 cm compact format and 0.2 cm low profile apply cleanly across all of these.
Can multiple small ulcer prosthetics be applied to the same patient simulation?
Yes — and this is one of the most training-relevant applications of this prosthetic. Patients with systemic disease, diabetes, immobility, or poor wound healing frequently have multiple concurrent wound sites. Applying several small ulcer prosthetics across a single patient simulation creates the complex multi-wound assessment and prioritisation scenario that reflects real clinical workload complexity.
Is this a wearable wound or a task trainer?
Neither. This is a self-adhesive silicone wound prosthetic — applied to skin or manikin surfaces. It has no internal function or strapping system.
Does it include bleeding capacity?
No. This is a static wound prosthetic designed for clinical assessment and wound recognition training. Moulage materials can be applied to vary wound appearance across different wound stages or presentations.
How do I apply it?
Peel and apply directly to clean, dry skin or a manikin surface. The self-adhesive backing holds without additional adhesive. Tapered edges blend naturally into the surrounding surface.
Is it reusable?
Yes. All TraumaSim silicone wounds are washable and reusable. Clean gently after each use, allow to dry fully, and store flat to maintain the adhesive backing between sessions.
What skin tones are available?
11 tones are available: 00 Porcelain, 01 Light, 02 Medium, 03 Olive, 04 Medium Olive, 05 Rosy, 06 Warm Rosy, 07 Warm Tan, 08 Tan, 09 Dark Tan, and 10 Dark. Commonly requested tones are held in standard stock. Other tones are manufactured to order — contact TacMed Australia before placing your order to confirm availability and lead times.
What are the dimensions and weight?
The prosthetic measures 11 cm x 11 cm x 0.2 cm and weighs 0.1 kg.
Can I purchase this as part of a kit?
Yes. TraumaSim silicone wounds are available individually and in kit configurations. Contact TacMed Australia for details on kits that include this wound.
