Do you know 3D printed silicone medical simulators?

Detachable Coronary Model

Minimally invasive surgery has become an important method for the treatment of vascular lesions. It is guided by medical imaging device and minimally invasive surgery is conducted through blood vessels and to location of lesion with minimal side effects, small drug usage and other significant characteristics.

However, in clinical, vascular interventional treatment puts forward very high requirements on the level of doctors, who not only need to have rich theoretical knowledge, but also need to go through a lot of training, according to the predetermined path to the site of vascular lesions. Currently, medical students and physicians are trained to perform interventional procedures using silicone vascular models.

Compared with ABS 3D printed blood vessel model, the silicone blood vessel model is closer to the real blood vessel of human body. The 3D printing technology can "copy" the complex geometric shapes and tiny details of the heart and blood vessels of each patient one by one, so that the silicone blood vessels made by the 3D printing model can reflect the same detailed characteristics, thus providing the basis for medical training and simulation.

The medical properties of medical silicone were discovered in 1945. In 1960, a lot of medical silica gel was used as medical products abroad. In particular, the application of medical silicone in cardiac pacemaker and heart valve not only makes thousands of patients gain a new life, but also plays a great role in promoting the development of other instruments. At present, many medical silicone rubber products have been put into clinical application.

Silicone can be made into human blood vessels, lungs, and other organs model, because of its acid resistance and non-toxic.

Silicone can be used as a catheter into a part of the human body as an important auxiliary material and means of rescue and treatment. Such as patients with liver dysfunction for intravenous intubation with fluid rehydration.

Many of our models use silicone as raw material, so what are its unique properties?

High adsorption performance; Good thermal stability; Stable chemical properties, etc.

The Detachable Coronary Model, made of silicone shore 40A, is recommended.
