Simulation has proven experience in the aviation and other industries in improving performance and reducing errors. PROcedure Rehearsal Studio provides a platform to practice and optimize procedures using personalized patient data in advance of performing live cases, assuring an unparalleled opportunity to streamline all aspects of the actual procedure, improve patient safety, and reduce the use of additional costly devices that are often needed when procedures are unable to be rehearsed.

We have been very interested in improving patient care through learning and essentially rehearsing the procedures before we treat the patients,” said Dr. Katzen. “Using advanced simulation techniques similar to what pilots use, we are able to take patient specific information and rehearse the procedure before we actually perform the real procedure.

Simulation can and should be part of rEVAR programs. It can decrease the amount of procedure complications and contribute to the reduction in costs. In my opinion, Patient Specific Rehearsal is probably the greatest innovation in vascular surgery since EVAR.
