There are limited opportunities for electrophysiologists and interventional cardiologists to practice the transseptal procedure in the clinical setting. The procedure requires a trained hand and working knowledge, so without the opportunity to practice before performing it in a live setting, even simplicity can feel daunting. 

Coronary Advanced to Help Fellows and Attending Interventional Cardiologists to Perfect Skills in Complex Scenarios

VIST^® G7 Introduces a Virtual Patient to Help Doctors Acquire, Retain, and Enhance Skills in the Absence of Procedural Volume.  

Mentice AB (STO: MNTC), a world leader in simulation solutions for endovascular therapies, will be showcasing the first of-its-kind flexible Coronary Essentials training solution at the 20th International Meeting on Simulation in Healthcare (IMSH 2020) in San Diego from January 19 to January 22.

Trauma is the main cause of death in individuals under 44 years of age in the US, and accounts for over 40 million emergency room visits per year. Increased use of endovascular treatment methods, where small wires and catheters are threaded through a patient’s blood vessels, has the potential to offer great advantages in vascular trauma over traditional methods.

The new version of the VIST-Lab is an improved clinical set-up that continues to offer many opportunities for various training environments that enhance efficient learning processes. The 16 standard modules have received functionality upgrades and many improvements have been implemented thanks to customer feedback.
