This study addresses endovascular training using simulators for uterine artery embolization. A review of endovascular skill training for surgeons using simulators was performed. Surgeons possess varying levels of proficiency in endovascular techniques. A simulator will improve endovascular skills in the following areas: C-arm image intensifier use, catheter selection and manipulation, understanding of the pelvic anatomy, and technique of embolization. Surgeons may gain realistic experience on the simulator prior to entry into the cath lab or procedure room. Using a simulator, surgeons can learn valuable endovascular skills necessary for successful performance of uterine artery embolization.
本研究探讨使用模拟器进行子宫动脉栓塞的血管内培训。对使用模拟器的外科医生进行血管内技能培训的情况进行了综述。外科医生在血管内技术方面的熟练程度各不相同。模拟器将在以下方面提高血管内技能：C形臂影像增强器的使用、导管的选择和操作、盆腔解剖结构的理解以及栓塞技术。在进入导管室或手术室之前，外科医生可以在模拟器上获得实际经验。通过使用模拟器，外科医生可以学习成功进行子宫动脉栓塞所需的宝贵血管内技能。
