What is transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)?
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) plays an important role in the treatment of symptomatic aortic stenosis.
TAVR is one of the most rapidly developing techniques in interventional medicine, with more than 350,000 procedures performed in more than 10,000 centers worldwide.
With the development of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) technology, the need for relevant surgical models continues to increase. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) as one of the most mature products in 3D research and development, is favored by many leading interventional device enterprises.
The model is highly accurate to the real internal diameter and layout of human blood vessels, supports the intervention of real surgical instruments, and can perform complete and real clinical operation of transccatheter aortic valve replacement, and can be used for two intervention methods: femoral artery approach or apical approach.
The model is a three-dimensional space structure, integral loop design, liquid circulation, can simulate human artery blood flow, aortic valve replacement and other actions. External imitation heart pulsation pump, blood flow and pulse of blood vessels, reserving 2 pressure points, can measure the pressure before and after the valve.
Application scenario
The model can be used for instrument performance test, function demonstration and training such as transcatheter aortic valve interventional surgery, as well as operation practice of aortic valve stent implantation.
Product advantages:
1. The TAVR model is based on real human angiography and CT data, and the internal diameter and layout of blood vessels are consistent with that of real human blood vessels. Facilitate premarket testing and clinical operation training, such as catheterization, valve replacement, etc.
2. It is printed with special silicone material, which can highly restore the touch of human blood vessels, and can customize the hardness of blood vessels according to the needs, which has been protected by a number of national patents.
3. Relevant lesions can be customized according to demand, and the aortic valve model can be matched to make the surgical demonstration more accurate.
4. Modular design, can be connected to other three-dimensional vascular models, flexible adjustment of model structure, to meet the requirements of multi-scene application.
