CVC200

Central Venous Catheterisation Insertion Simulator

Pharmabotics have developed a unique CVC training simulator that works with Ultrasound in response to the N.I.C.E. Guidelines (Report No.49)


Key features

  • Anatomical landmarks can be identified: ice. clavicle, sternocleidomastoid muscle and internal carotid artery which are palpable. Includes a manual pulse
  • Skin is made of soft realistic tissue that can absorb 150 full CVC insertions without showing the last user
  • Arteries and veins are clearly visible with Ultrasound
  • Veins collapse when pressure from the Ultrasound transducer/probe is applied. Arteries do not
  • Needle tip is clearly visualised with ultrasound in correct position
  • Pressurised blood flow presents with a realistic flashback on entry to vessel
  • The CVCZOO has a self-contained reservoir and vessel system therefore no need for gravity bags or pumps
  • Internal Jugular (IJV) and Sub-clavian (SV) approaches can be made * Palpable Carotid pulse can be manually simulated

Key Skills

  • Can practise safely needle insertion of Introducer, Guidewire (Seldinger technique), Dilator and Central line into intimal jugular vein or subclavian vein and supra clavicular approach
  • Trainees can identify IJV and SV blood Measles with ultrasound probe and practise correct needle insertion
  • Full central line insertion can be undertaken
  • Use of ultrasound probe: depth, gains and approach
  • Practice hand-eye coordination with probe and needle position
  • CVC trainer can be used with or without ultrasound guidance
