About

This study is aim to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of 3D printed silicone coronary artery simulator for percutaneous coronary interventional training.

Full description

With the aging of the population, the incidence of cardiovascular diseases has exceeded that of respiratory diseases and cancer, corresponding to the rapid increase in the number of coronary stent implantation. Therefore, the standardized training of interventional cardiologists is particularly important. Nowadays percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) training mode is mainly for the trainees to operate on the patients under the experienced operator. Although this kind of training method can truly show the operation process, it has obvious limitations. For beginners, it takes repeated training and revision to achieve proficiency and accuracy.Learning only through real surgery may result in longer operative times, increased radiation exposure, and increased complications.This study is aim to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of 3D printed silicone coronary artery simulator for percutaneous coronary interventional training.
