BluePhantom Training Model for Transesophageal Echo (TEE) and Transthoracic Echo (TTE)

Excellent for training clinicians in techniques associated with transthoracic echocardiography, transesophageal echo (TEE), and ultrasound-guided pericardiocentesis. Blue Phantom's TTE/TEE cardiac ultrasound training platform allows users to develop and practice ultrasound skills such as TEE, transthoracic echocardiography, and ultrasound-guided pericardiocentesis. Skills trained include: use of ultrasound system settings, transducer insertion and placement, probe positioning and movement, correct transducer pressure to obtain images, recognition of cardiac structures, lung and rib artifacts, and guiding needles and catheters into the pericardial space. The self-healing simulated tissue allows for repeated procedural training without fluid leakage using 18–21 gauge needles and associated catheters.

This extremely realistic life-size TEE and TTE simulator includes an articulating jaw and extends from the head to mid-thigh. Use your own ultrasound system and a TEE simulator – the model works well with all ultrasound systems with appropriate transducers for echocardiographic imaging. Users can expect extreme durability with the simulated tissue, which can withstand thousands of pericardiocentesis procedures. Excellent for cardiology, anesthesiology, emergency medicine, ultrasound training programs, and medical training facilities.
