When selecting a model for bovine body acupuncture, the following key factors should be looked at to ensure that the model chosen can meet the needs of teaching, practice or research:

1. Degree of imitation and anatomical accuracy

Point distribution: The model should accurately reflect the point distribution of the bovine body, including the main areas of the head and neck, forelimbs, trunk and tail, and hind limbs.

Anatomical structure: The model should simulate as much as possible the anatomy of a real bovine body, including bones, muscles, blood vessels, etc., so that learners can more intuitively understand the operating environment and effects of acupuncture.

2. Material and durability

Material selection: The model should be made of high-quality materials, such as PVC, to ensure that it has a certain degree of durability and stability. This ensures that the model is not easily damaged or deformed during long-term use, maintaining the accuracy and stability of its anatomical structure.

Durability test: Understand the durability test of the model, including wear resistance, aging resistance and other performance test results to ensure that the model can be used for a long time.

3. Clarity of acupoint labeling

Labeling method: The acupoints on the model should be clearly labeled, and may use recessive labeling technology to appear under specific light sources, so that learners can accurately find and identify acupoints.

Information integrity: In addition to the location of acupoints, the model should also provide detailed information about each acupoint, such as name, efficacy, symptoms, etc., so that learners can fully understand.

4. Teaching and practice functions

Teaching function: The model should have good teaching function to help students and doctors better understand the theory and practice of acupuncture treatment. This may include supporting materials such as detailed instruction manuals, instructional videos, etc.

Practical function: The model should support the practice of acupuncture, moxibustion and other acupuncture operation modes, so that learners can practice repeatedly in a simulated environment to improve their actual operation ability.

5. Safety and hygiene

Safety design: The design of the model should take into account the safety during use and avoid possible injuries caused by sharp edges or fragile parts.

Sanitary handling: The model should be easy to clean and disinfect to ensure hygienic safety during multi-person use or long-term use.

6. Cost performance

Reasonable price: under the premise of meeting the above requirements, choose a cost-effective model to ensure the effective use of resources.

To sum up, factors such as fidelity, material durability, acupoint labeling clarity, teaching and practice functions, safety and hygiene, and cost performance should be comprehensively considered when selecting a bovine body acupuncture model. Choose the model that best suits your needs by carefully comparing models of different brands and models.
