Ultrasound Central Venous Catheter Insertion Simulator Mk 3
A realistic model for teaching central line management including cannula approaches and the insertion of central venous catheters into the superior vena cava, with and without ultrasound guidance.
Overview
- 2 CVC placement pads
- 1 transparent anatomical block
- Blue and red fluid confirms successful and unsuccessful needle placement
