Highlights ■ Ultrasound improves success rates and reducescomplications during vascular puncture. ■ Simulation-based training enables safe and effectiveacquisition of procedural skills. ■ A low-cost, reproducible simulation model was developed. ■ Specialists validated the model as effective for teaching and training. ABSTRACT Objective: To develop a low-fidelity, low-cost simulation model for ultrasound-guided vascular puncture that is easily reproducible and validated by an expert panel. Methods: Sequential tests using different materials were conducted based on phantom models described in the literature. The […]
