The new version of the VIST-Lab is an improved clinical set-up that continues to offer many opportunities for various training environments that enhance efficient learning processes. The 16 standard modules have received functionality upgrades and many improvements have been implemented thanks to customer feedback.
New release! A more realistic clinical endovascular simulation set-up
Our passion is to help our customers be even more successful. The new version of the VIST-Lab is an improved clinical set-up that continues to offer many opportunities for various training environments that enhance efficient learning processes. The 16 standard modules have received functionality upgrades and many improvements have been implemented thanks to customer feedback.
Watch our recorded release webinar
Daniel and Dominic from our Product Team present all the details of what’s new in this recorded release webinar.
The updated VIST-Lab
The new solution includes a full body mannequin with femoral, radial and subclavian/jugular access options. The previous 4 monitor set-up is now replaced with 1 ultra-high-definition (4K UHD) screen that allows 8.3 million pixels to display fluoro, cine and vital signs.
As the screen can be separated from the VIST-Lab table it offers various staff constellations the opportunity to train more efficiently as well as gain easier access to the left femoral and subclavian sites. Controlling everything during a training procedure is easy as you only need to use the single, sensitive, crystal clear HD touch screen display.
Update highlights
Create a more realistic clinical set-up with the large, new 50” 4k UHD screen
Improved flexibility thanks to the new screen which can be moved around separately to provide easier access and set-up for team training and left femoral or subclavian approach
Improved usability with a new 23 inch HD touch screen that is more sensitive and delivers improved user interface control.
We have listened to feedback from our customers and implemented more than 100 improvements in our 16 standard modules. Prioritizing all the requests was tough but we hope we did a good job.
