Pocket Vessel Anastomosis Trainer (#1389)
Product(s): Pocket Vessel Anastomosis Trainer (#1389)
IMPORTANT: The set-up, operation and care of this model are explained herein. To ensure successful use of this model, review and understand instructions thoroughly before use and follow them as described. As many of our materials, particularly those that simulate in vivo tissue, are fragile, they may be sensitive to environmental or handling conditions (i.e. extremes of temperature and humidity) that will affect their ultimate shelf life. To ensure the maximum shelf life possible, please keep all simulated tissue in a temperature-controlled environment and free from exposure to conditions that might cause them to fail. To avoid distorting the tissue surfaces always repack trainer parts in their original packaging without compression by contact with other objects such as devices and instruments. To ensure the longest useful life of the trainer, please handle with care and protect it when shipping or traveling.
Remove Cover
Slide the cover laterally to remove it from trainer.
Install Target Vessel
Rotate vessel adaptors to access the barbed luer fittings. Fit the ends of a target vessel over the barbs closest in size.
Adjust the tension or the position of the vessel by sliding the support pad up or down the bar.
Install Vessel Clip and Graft Vessel
Squeeze the clip open and insert a graft vessel. Insert the leg of vessel clip into one of the holes and bend into positon for anastomosis.
Create More Challenging Approach
To create a greater challenge in your suturing approach insert the cover perpendicularly into the slot at the edge of the trainer.
Optional Accessories
With purchase of a Mitral Valve Prolapse Trainer (#1320) or (#1012), the Pocket Vessel Anastomosis Trainer can be used as a platform for the practice of mitral valve prolapse repair. Use two vessel clips to support the Mitral Valve on the Trainer.
Replacing Vessel Fittings
The trainer may be adapted to support non-standard vessel sizes by replacing the fittings with the appropriately sized luers. Turn luer fittings counter-clockwise to remove from sockets. Insert optional luers in sockets and hand tighten.
