Role of simulators on structural training

Mehmet Cilingiroglu et al. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. .

Abstract

Structural heart interventions are a rapidly evolving field in the treatment of complex heart diseases. While the number of dedicated fellowship programs keep increasing, there are important limitations on the number and diversity in certain structural heart procedures. Procedural specific simulation technology offer a safer, comprehensive and controlled training opportunity.
