Open Vascular Training System

The open vascular training system (OVTS) is the most versatile and comprehensive option for skills training in open vascular surgery. The OVTS is compatible with ReSuture’s procedural cartridges- allowing for a wide range of surgeries to be simulated in the same perfused system. Pulsatile fluid flow coupled with our high-fidelity procedural cartridges delivers unparalleled realism in surgical training. The compact and multifaceted utility of the OVTS means surgical trainees can get the experience of operating- any time, anywhere.

Description

The Complete Open Vascular Surgery Simulation Platform

The Open Vascular Training System (OVTS) is a complete open vascular surgery simulator — the most versatile and comprehensive option for surgical skills training. One system supports an entire training curriculum: the OVTS accepts ReSuture’s interchangeable procedural cartridges, each recreating a complete surgical field with synthetic vasculature that cuts and sutures like live human tissue. Simulated blood flow brings procedures to life, and replaceable cartridges mean every trainee gets a fresh, consistent surgical field — without the cost, scheduling, and variability of cadaver or animal labs.

Skills Training

  • Carotid endarterectomy
  • Vascular anastomosis
  • Abdominal aorta aneurysm repair
  • Shunting and stent placement
  • Arteriotomy and patch angioplasty
  • Vascular suturing and tissue handling
  • Anatomy
  • Dissection

Who It’s For

Surgical residency and fellowship programs building a repeatable open-skills curriculum; simulation centers needing durable platforms with replaceable consumables; and medical device companies running demonstrations and physician training.
