Our state-of-the-art simulators offer unmatched realism and precision. By replicating human vascular anatomy, they enable hands-on training and mastery of critical surgical techniques in a safe and controlled environment. Equipped with comprehensive accessories, including customizable inlays and pulsatile flow systems, our simulators meet the needs of both training and product testing.
Abdominal model for “open aortic surgery” – The waterfilled aortic inlay, under pulsatile pressure, makes a lifelike training of the AAA repair possible. All arteries from the aorta are open and can be anastomosed.
Arm model for shunt-surgery – The water-filled vessel system, under pulsatile pressure, makes a lifelike hands-on training of almost all important shunts possible.
Carotid simulation model for open carotid surgery – The water filled carotid inlay, under pulsatile pressure, makes a lifelike training of the conventional TEA and of the eversion-TEA possible.
The thoracic simulator is a life-like simulator with pulsatile flow. Several inlays w/o coronary arteries and w/o aortic valve are available. On the thoracic simulator a big variety of cardiac and vascular surgical procedures can be trained. Not only perfect technique but also good assistance is important and can be trained. Suture leakages are unmasked and extra stitches which sometimes are bailout stitches can be exercised. The thoracic simulator is also an ideal tool to discuss surgical strategies.
For a wide range of surgical procedures. Fits many different, specific inlays (silicon based or life-like bio tissue with embedded inlays). Two battery powered pumps, pulsatile and steady flow. Adjustable wound depth
The Vascular International (VI) School for Vascular Surgery is dedicated to advancing the training and education of vascular surgical techniques through the use of lifelike models. With patient safety as the top priority, VI continuously strives to enhance vascular surgery training, ensuring the highest standards of safe and effective open and endovascular patient care.
