Vascular International Carotid Head Simulator

Vascular International Foundation and School is an organization based in Switzerland that has been in business for over 25 years with the sole mission of running hands-on open vascular skills simulation courses in Europe. Their organization was chosen by the European Vascular Association to evaluate the surgical skills of vascular fellows. VI designed this line of high quality simulators to simulate realistic workstations with state of the art pulsatile pump systems.

The Vascular International Carotid Head Simulator consists of a male size head with an opening at the neck where the LifeLike Carotid Artery with Plaque or the VI Embedded Carotid Arteries with Plaque and Dermis is placed. The trainee can be trained on carotid dissection and carotid endarterectomy skills. Complete with a pulsatile pump to add flow through the simulator, the Vascular International Carotid Head provides a very realistic training scenario.
