This module helps trainees gain skills, manual dexterity and confidence in ultrasound-guided Central venous line placement. Trainee can choose between common approaches (internal jugular vein or the subclavian vein) using in-plane and out-of-plane ultrasound guidance techniques and practice key procedural steps, including ultrasound evaluation, puncture site selection, needle access, wire insertion and verification. The simulated procedure is accompanied by comprehensive educational aids such as 3D anatomical map, step-by-step guidance, anatomical labels and organ puncture alerts. A detailed performance report concludes the training.
Learning Objectives:
- To perform ultrasound-guided central line placement
