Astra™ Replacement Uterus with Cervix
Please Note: Astra™ pre-orders now open. Official product launch coming Fall 2026. Pre-orders will begin shipping in late October / early November.
The Astra uterus with cervix is a consumable component and is intended to be replaced periodically as wear occurs.
As with any soft-tissue simulation model, the uterine component will experience normal wear with repeated use. Over time, the feel and resistance of the uterine component may change, particularly with repeated tenaculum use. The rate of wear will vary depending on IUD type and size, tenaculum placement and technique, and frequency and manner of use. A change in the tactile feel of the uterine component with use is an expected characteristic of the model and does not necessarily indicate a defect. The uterine component can be replaced when the desired level of tactile realism is no longer achieved.

FAQ
How do I clean and care for my Granville Biomedical anatomical model?
Silicone naturally attracts dust and other particles. Models can be cleaned with warm water and mild soap, if needed. To ensure your product stays clean when not in use, store in an air-tight container.
How do I optimize the lifespan of my Granville Biomedical suturing model?
When suturing your model or product, do not use assertive force. Gently suture the laceration closed. When finished, use surgical scissors to gently remove sutures and gently pull from the identified laceration. Do not force or rip sutures out as this may damage the material, decreasing the lifespan of your product.
Are Granville Biomedical suturing models reusable?
All of our suturing products are designed to be durable and reusable. Models are designed to simulate human soft tissue. To increase the lifespan of your model, gently remove sutures using surgical scissors from your product without using any assertive force.
What materials are used in Granville Biomedical products?
Granville Biomedical uses novel silicone recipes to achieve the most anatomically accurate look and feel. Our model stands and other ridged products are 3D printed using non-toxic PLA filament.
