An Inexpensive Medical Training Aid for Pericardiocentesis
| Défi: | Santé | | Catégorie: | Intermédiaire | | Région: | Frontenac, Lennox & Addington | | Ville: | Kingston, ON | | École: | Leahurst College | | Sommaire: | Pericardiocentesis is a relatively rare, but high-risk procedure that involves aspirating fluid from the pericardial cavity to relieve heart compression. Currently, ultrasound imaging is used to provide real-time visualization of the needle intraoperatively. Commercially available pericardiocentesis training models are extremely expensive. The goal was to create a low-cost, realistic phantom to be used alongside an open-source software platform for image-guided pericardiocentesis intervention training. |
