Master Life-Saving Pulmonary Embolism Interventions – Without Patient Risk
Endovascular pulmonary thrombectomy represents a fundamental shift in pulmonary embolism (PE) management, offering a minimally invasive alternative to surgical intervention.
This advanced module delivers risk-free, high-fidelity hands-on training that bridges the gap between theory and practice. Physicians will practice the complete endovascular PE treatment workflow – from femoral or jugular access through successful clot aspiration – developing the muscle memory and clinical judgment critical for optimal patient outcomes.
Multiple case scenarios with escalating difficulty ensure trainees build skills systematically – from straightforward to complex presentation – preparing trainees for a wide spectrum of cases they will encounter in practice.
Learning Objectives:
- Navigate complex anatomy with precision – Advance catheters confidently through the right heart chambers and into the pulmonary arteries.
- Interpret hemodynamic data for informed decisions – Measure and analyze pre- and post-procedure pulmonary artery pressure and vital signs to guide treatment.
- Execute effective thrombus removal – Identify thrombus location and perform aspiration from the pulmonary arteries.
