NV Connect training cases are designed to learn skills essential to cerebral interventional procedures. The module facilitates technical, procedural, and cognitive training and discussions in a complete risk-free environment for these delicate procedures.
The training cases offer the opportunity to train on a range of neuro-interventional procedures, from the carotid artery and intracranial stenting to thrombectomy and aneurysm treatments (using flow diversion and coiling).
All cases provide all trainees—from beginners to advanced operators—with a risk-free opportunity to perfect both basic navigation skills and procedure-related specific skills and prepare well for the real intervention. NV Connect also allows trainers to set specific training targets, depending on the audience, by setting up benchmarks for each case or using the predefined benchmarks that come with the cases.
The ICAD cases teach specific skills for treating intracranial artery stenosis, focusing on the basic steps of assessing the severity of the stenosis, choosing the proper material, navigating to and crossing the stenosis, and treating the stenosis using balloon dilatation and stenting.
