Vascular Surgery Training Simulator with Realistic Tissue Pulsatile Flow Support

Training Simulator

Gold Medicals presents a high-fidelity vascular surgical training simulator designed for comprehensive skill development in open vascular procedures. The Embedded Vessels Pad delivers a realistic tactile experience with tissue that feels, sutures, and behaves like living human tissue. Paired with the VI Box, this system enables trainees to practice ultrasound guidance, dissection techniques, vessel exposure, and critical repair skills in a controlled environment.

The simulator supports training in advanced vascular surgical procedures including end-to-end and end-to-side anastomoses using saphenous vein grafts, femoral endarterectomy, carotid endarterectomy, arterial patch repair, and femoral cannulation. Integrated pulsatile pump functionality allows real-time assessment of repair quality by simulating physiological flow conditions.

Ready to Use Anywhere: Hospital, Home or Training Facility. Ideal for the repetitive training, maintenance, and evaluation of basic open surgical skills.

Key Skills Covered:

• Open Vascular Anastomosis Training
• Clamp the femoral artery, create an incision, and perform end-to-end anastomosis using a large vein graft secured to the pump
• Perform end-to-side anastomosis between two arteries with precise suturing techniques
• Dissect the femoral artery from the LifeLike Embedded Femoral Arteries Pad, clamp, and conduct a complete end-to-end repair
• Release the clamp and evaluate the integrity of the anastomosis using the pulsatile pump system

• Repair surrounding tissue layers and skin for full procedural simulation

• Open Carotid Endarterectomy Training

• Dissect the carotid artery, apply clamping, remove simulated plaque, and perform patch repair with suturing
• Clamp the carotid artery, make an incision, excise plaque material, and close the vessel with secure suture technique

Usage Instructions:

• Spray tissues with water every 30 minutes during prolonged use to maintain tissue integrity
• After short-term storage (up to several days), rinse tissues thoroughly and securely seal in resealable bags
• For extended storage periods exceeding two weeks, place the product in a sealed container filled with water

This simulator provides an evidence-based training platform that enhances surgical proficiency through realistic tactile feedback and functional validation of repairs.
