IN THE NEWS
STROKE SIMULATION AT DUNDEE SAVES LIVE ACROSS THE WORLD
The World Federation for Interventional Stroke Treatment (WIST) has accredited
the University of Dundee as its official global training centre. This means
doctors and teams from relevant specialities looking to train in Endovascular
Stroke Treatment (EST) for WIST accreditation will be able to do so.
The announcement coincides with the publication of WIST competency-based
training guidelines. Professor Iris Grunwald, Chair of Neuroradiology at
Dundee’s School of Medicine, is the lead author of the guidelines.
Professor Grunwald utilised Dundee’s high fidelity simulators and unique
perfused cadaveric model to develop the training guidelines. Her innovative work
in this area has helped establish the School of Medicine as a global centre of
excellence for stroke training and treatment.

FIRST INTRODUCTION OF CANINE LAPAROSCOPY CURRICULUM
Prof. Boel Fransson from Washington State University worked with us to develop
the first canine laparoscopic curriculum for the LAP Mentor Express
simulator. This virtual reality simulation-based curriculum for canine
laparoscopic cholecystectomy, presented at ACVS veterinary meeting, will become
available in the near future.
“We haven’t had this sort of technology — it’s a game changer,” Fransson said.
“The beauty with these systems is they give you an opportunity to make mistakes,
and you will make mistakes when you first learn, but we don’t want those
mistakes to happen in a live animal.”

3D PRINTING IN HEALTHCARE
“The 3D model actually showed us something in three dimensions that we didn’t
fully appreciate using the 2D model,” Katzen told the Miami Herald. “The 3D
models that we had actually caused us to change the device that we were going to
use.”
The procedure, known as EVAR, which stands for endovascular aneurysm repair,
involved placing a catheter in the femoral artery to correct an aneurysm.
Sometimes doctors use a straight device, other times they use one that flowers
at the end. When they saw the 3D model of their patient, the doctors realized
they had initially planned on using the wrong device. “I think I would have
known because I’m a fairly senior individual who is used to seeing a lot of
subtle findings and picking them up,” Katzen says. “But I think with the model
we used, it made it more obvious to anyone with any level of experience that
there was a potential problem here.”

In preparation for a patient’s tortuous neck angulation, Dr. Schmidt and his
team used Simbionix Procedural Rehearsal Software (PRS), to help improve
outcomes. The PRS allowed Dr. Schmidt and his team to simulate the patient’s
anatomy and deploy a simulated Aorfix graft prior to performing the actual
procedure. During the live case, Dr. Schmidt deployed the Aorfix graft with
relative ease and without any technical issues, and the post-procedural
outcomes, which included no report of endoleaks, were deemed positive. The
patient is also reported to be recovering well.
