Abstract

Un système d'entraînement et de répétitions pour chirurgies comprend une valve et une pompe en communication fluidique avec la valve. Un réservoir destiné à stocker un fluide est en communication fluidique avec la valve. Un tube d'approche chirurgicale dont une extrémité proximale est recouverte de manière étanche par une membrane élastomère auto-cicatrisante est en communication fluidique avec la valve. Un orifice de sortie est en communication fluidique avec une extrémité distale du tube d'approche chirurgicale. Une cartouche d'accès anatomique est couplée de manière amovible à l'orifice de sortie et présente un trajet tortueux dont la forme, la taille et les propriétés mécaniques imitent celles d'un vaisseau sanguin humain choisi parmi l'arc aortique, l'artère radiale et l'artère fémorale. Une cartouche anatomique est couplée de manière amovible à la cartouche d'accès anatomique et présente un trajet tortueux dont la forme, la taille et les propriétés mécaniques imitent celles d'un vaisseau sanguin humain choisi parmi l'artère sous-clavière, l'artère carotide commune et l'artère cérébrale.
