CATHIS® 5
Device Rationale
CATHIS® 5 is designed for the complete execution of all interventions with one insertion point (jugular, transradial, transfemoral). This simulator provides five internal tracking systems which allow the display of five independent instruments simultaneously.
This is our high end fullscope simulator, ideal for university hospitals or simulation centers. It is suitable for use in all medical specialties, including neuroradiology, cardiology, radiology, angiology and pneumology.
In combination with a second simulator CATHIS® 5 provides the full experience of applications that require two insertion points and the use of five different instruments.
Scope of application
During training with the CATHIS® simulator medical liquids are used as in reality:

· Disposable manifolds management
· Aspiration catheter
· Contrast agent injections
· Medication injections
· Indeflators
· Connection of injection systems

This allows the CATHIS® simulator to provide effective skill training, e.g. avoiding air embolisms.
It provides all the necessary features such as navigation of an instrument, force feedback and use of inflation devices. It can be connected to any kind of instrument or device, even a real angio one.
CATHIS® 5 provides a high-end graphic interface, excellent haptic and immediate system response.
The simulator can be extended with several additional devices that enable specific applications.
Details of the simulator
In combination with our CATHIS® HUB it is possible to measure the use of liquids such as aspiration in mechanical thrombectomy or even various pressures from the inflation device:
It enables adjustment of shutters for training of X-ray hygiene including the display of radiation exposure of both patient and trainee.
It enables biplane display of simulation (simultaneous, independent use of C-arms and table movement).
The combination with the Instructor Cockpit enables the trainer to control the entire simulation remotely in real time. Thus the trainee can focus on specific training sequences while the instructor manages the angio machine, C-arm, the selection of instruments, hemodynamics or even provokes the occurrence of unexpected complications such as an embolization at any time.
The documentation of learning history and the export of training data for evaluation enables the progress of training to be monitored.
Combination with the Instructor Cockpit
The CATHIS® Instructor Cockpit offers complete remote control in real time.
While the trainee focuses on specific training sequences, the instructor can manage the angio machine, angio suite, X-rays, C-arm, the selection of instruments, hemodynamics and even trigger the occurrence of unexpected complications such as an embolization at any time.
The Instructor Cockpit is available in various versions (fullscope - tablet; smaller editions with 6 - 15 buttons).
The device can be customised in terms of design and features to meet specific individual customer requirements.
