Brief summary
This study is aim to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of 3D printed silicone coronary artery simulator for percutaneous coronary interventional training.
Detailed description
With the aging of the population, the incidence of cardiovascular diseases has exceeded that of respiratory diseases and cancer, corresponding to the rapid increase in the number of coronary stent implantation. Therefore, the standardized training of interventional cardiologists is particularly important. Nowadays percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) training mode is mainly for the trainees to operate on the patients under the experienced operator. Although this kind of training method can truly show the operation process, it has obvious limitations. For beginners, it takes repeated training and revision to achieve proficiency and accuracy.Learning only through real surgery may result in longer operative times, increased radiation exposure, and increased complications.This study is aim to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of 3D printed silicone coronary artery simulator for percutaneous coronary interventional training.
Interventions
OTHERTraining on coronary angiography using 3D coronary artery simulator
Participants will have a test of coronary arteriography before and after training, compare the scores to analysis if the simulator training is effective.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change of the time taken in operation | Through study completion, an average of 4 hours | The change of time taken to complete the coronary angiography assessment before and after training |
| Change of the amount of contrast agent used | Through study completion, an average of 4 hours | The change of the amount of contrast agent used in the coronary angiography assessment before and after training |
| Change in assessment scores | Through study completion, an average of 4 hours | The change of scores of Rating scale of coronary angiography operation assessment before and after training. The assessment includes operation integrity, standardization, proficiency, accuracy,etc. Every point contain 5 different levels from the worst(1) to the best(5). |
