Description

What this equipment is and what it's designed for.

BlockSim™ is an innovative high-fidelity system for the simulation of ultrasound-guided fascial blocks. Designed to meet the training needs in the field of ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia, it allows visualisation of the anatomy of the region of interest, providing information on the needle path to the target and testing the user’s ability to identify structures.

Knowledge

What you learn

Patient simulator modality. The competencies this equipment trains, in the language of the training plan.

The user can practice and develop competence through simulation scenarios based on real clinical images.
The 9 different cases available take into account the appropriate movements to reach the target, the avoidance of unwanted structures, the time to complete the procedure and the disposition of the injected local anaesthetic.
At the end of the procedure, for each clinical case, the user is provided with an overall score based on their performance.
The simulated injection of local anaesthetic driven by a real syringe.
Allowing the user to investigate the target and choose the appropriate entry plane for the needle.
