고급 시뮬레이션 장비의 성능을 최대한으로 사용하기 위해서는 최적의 교육테크닉이 필요합니다. 이 교육테크닉은 CATHI아카데미에서 시작: CATHI아카데미는 거의 20년 동안 전형적인 대면 워크샵을 정기적으로 진행해오고 있습니다. 그 동안 CATHI아카데미는 최종사용자가 세션에서 최대한 많은 것을 익히게 하기 위한 심층적 지식과 정확한 이해를 얻었다.

CATHI아카데미의 과정은 CATHIS^® 시뮬레이터를 사용하여 표적교육과 결합된 최신의 실용적 교육법을 실시합니다.

CATHI아카데미의 교육프로그램은 주로 기존의 능력을 향상시키려는 의사들을 대상으로 합니다. 매우 정교한 콘텐츠는 복잡하고 어려운 혈관내수술을 포함합니다. 팀교육도 운영되며, 간호직원도 포함됩니다.

교육 세션의 장소는 관련된 규정에 따르고, 상황에 따라서는 카테터연구실에서 진행될 수도 있습니다.

교육은 참가자의 기존 지식에 따라 개별적으로 조정됩니다. 카테터연구실에서 중재술이 필요한 경우에는 실제 상황과 같은 조건으로 선택된 교육컨텐츠를 집중적으로 교육합니다.

교육일정

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI)

- Introduction to Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI)

This one day course is aimed at trainee and assistant cardiologists with little or no experience in coronary diagnostics. The focus is on learning how to handle instruments or systems that are essential for a later intervention (such as catheters, devices, X-ray systems).

In addition to operating the X-ray system, training deals with the selection and handling of the guide catheter and a suitable wire. Further content covers the selection of a balloon or stent catheter and addresses questions about the contrast medium. The operation of injection systems, including contrast medium syringes, is also on the agenda of this course.

Necessary skills are taught on both a virtual reality simulator and models. These range from the selection of catheter materials to the correct handling of the catheters and techniques for avoiding complications.

- Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) Advanced

This one day session is intended for physicians who already have experience in coronary intervention, as well as for those who want to refresh their knowledge. The focus is on both diagnostic procedures (selection of projection planes, intubation of the guiding catheter and assessment of lesions) and therapy (planning the procedure, sequence of navigation, assessment, pre- and post-dilatation, balloon or stent selection). In addition, the steps and procedures of complication management will be practiced.

- Emergency Management around Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI)

This one day course is aimed at the entire cath lab team (interventional cardiologists, nurses, anesthesiologists, assistants).

The goal is to practice and discuss emergency management strategies and procedures. Strengths and weaknesses in a department's system and its interfaces will be analyzed, before developing solutions for critical situations.

Participants will become familiar with Crisis Resource Management (CRM) principles and learn how to apply them. The focus of the training will be on teamwork and communication.

Right Heart Catheterization (RHC)

This one day course is designed for prospective general practitioners and cardiology residents, as well as a refresher for interventional cardiologists.

Participants will gain an insight into typical interventional cardiology procedures. This includes implementing immediate emergency measures. Practical simulation exercises on models, as well as learning about the different catheter types and their respective areas of application, will provide the necessary confidence to approach and treat patients.

Basics of Cardiology

Training Concept

This training course is intended for residents in further training to acquire the basics of interventional cardiology in theory and practice.

The content of this course is fully conveyed and practiced virtually with the help of the interactive virtual CATHI Online tool - partly in lectures and partly in self-study and online self-training. This tool allows online training 24/7 and requires internet access only.

This enables the trainee to perform the training self-paced and tailored to his individual schedule – apart from the classroom lectures.

It is divided into four modules that build on each other and can also be booked independently from each other.

The course concludes with an exam and a training certificate, which proves that the participant has acquired the relevant interventional skills.

It embraces the teaching of coronary anatomy (LAO, RAO, cranial position) in the various levels:

• basics of coronary anatomy and pathology


• recognition of radiation hygiene in connection with vascular anatomy from different perspectives


• learning of the first steps in performing and assessing diagnostic coronary angiography


• structured learning of the handling of interventional instruments in first cardiological procedures and


• basic principles of coronary interventions.
