SonoSim Ultrasound Training Solution Vascular Mapping for Preoperative Planning of Dialysis Access Advanced Clinical Ultrasound Training

Vascular Mapping for Preoperative Planning of Dialysis Access Advanced Clinical Ultrasound Training provides an in-depth understanding of using ultrasound to perform vascular mapping as part of preoperative planning for establishing dialysis access. Vascular mapping of arm vessels prior to surgical creation of a dialysis conduit is a proven method of improving successful arteriovenous fistula creation and performance. The course begins by reviewing the anatomy of upper extremity vasculature. The various arteriovenous fistula (AVF) types and possible placements of arteriovenous grafts are then discussed, as well as sonographic technique and imaging principles involved in vascular mapping using ultrasound as part of preoperative dialysis access planning. The patented SonoSimulator helps develop the requisite cognitive task awareness and psychomotor skills required for performing ultrasound-guided vascular mapping of the upper extremities with a linear transducer.
