Coronary Essentials

Coronary Angiography Simulation-Hands-on training for essential interventional skills

learn more
This learning module is designed for:
Residents and fellows in interventional cardiology
Interventional cardiologists

Coronary Essentials is the entry-level (Coronary Angiography simulator) product in our comprehensive coronary intervention training platform, followed by Coronary Intermediate and Advanced. Designed for residents and fellows in interventional cardiology, it covers fundamental learning objectives, including angiography skills and a basic understanding of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). The platform provides ultimate flexibility as proctors can manipulate scenarios in real-time, using an iPad app or trainees can work independently under built-in expert guidance. This makes the solution adaptable to specific curricula and training environments.

By using lesion scoring and navigation training exercises, trainees will be able to identify lesions, comprehend anatomical structuring, and understand the choice and manipulation of devices for coronary intervention.
