Ultrasound training phantoms are essential clinical tools for ultrasound imaging, and they are becoming more costly. HM2.0 is a durable and re-moldable vascular access task trainer meant to teach valuable needle and hand coordination skills required for ultrasound-guided procedures. It is made from a durable and repairable ballistic gel meant to stimulate the tactile and visual feedback experienced in real patient ultrasound-guided vascular access. Ultrasound guidance increases the overall success rates and reduces the risk of complications of central and peripheral vascular access procedures1. Our HM2.0 re-moldable 2 vessel ultrasound phantom will be invaluable to the training of nurses, emergency medical technicians, physicians, and allied health professionals in learning this important skill in a controlled environment prior to the critical patient encounter.

This 2.0 vessel training model has the capacity to bear repeated punctures without suffering a reduction in its performance and usefulness. Simulation is a key component of learner competency and has begun replacing our traditional models see one, do one, teach one on patients in need of experienced operators. Our re-moldable training phantom comprises 2 vessels at different depths to mimic a range of challenges often faced in the clinical environment. This vessel trainer will perform well using any ultrasound imaging system configured with the appropriate transducer (12 MHz)3. The vessels can be accessed from the top and bottom sides and can be simply refilled using a syringe. The Phantom has no special storage requirements and near indefinite shelf life.

While clear phantoms offer a superior visual appearance to teach important anatomical concepts they do have a darker appearance due to lack of additive simulating human tissue on ultrasound. To use them with ultrasound imaging devices the gain function will need to be increased to 80-90%. Colorized phantoms offer superior ultrasound appearance and are closer matched to human tissue density and may only require a 60-70% adjustment on the gain function.

Product Benefits

Following are the benefits of using our HM2.0 ultrasound training model:

• HM.20 2 vessel ultrasound training phantom is exceptional in helping clinicians to get practical knowledge for acquiring and interpreting ultrasound images.
• This product will allow the clinicians to see the branching of the vessel, follow the passage of the vessels, and direct needles into the selected vessel using ultrasound imaging.
• The positive flow of the fluid when vessels are perfectly accessed.
• Curved surface shape delivers a scanning environment parallel to the human body
• Outstanding for trainees to acquire the abilities related to central line placement, vein cannulation, PICC lines, arterial contact, and venipuncture.
• Excellent for fields such as anesthesiology, nursing, PICC nursing, surgery, ultrasound training programs, emergency medicine, radiology, simulation centers, surgical skills centers, medical education services, and ultrasound producers for ultrasound teaching and demos.

Accurately mimicking the texture and imaging features of an actual vessel ultrasound exam, clinicians can develop and perfect the skills essential to the effective implementation of ultrasound in their care environment. Practicing first-time needle insertion on a patient is usually less than ideal which is why our HM2.0 re-moldable 2 vessel ultrasound phantom is effective for improving the abilities of novices. This ultrasound model is helpful for practicing ultrasound-guided procedures and train clinicians on ultrasound-guided injection. Unique high-fidelity ultrasound phantom facilitates clinicians ineffective training in ultrasound scanning with their own clinical devices. Our product offers a reliable, safe, cost-effective, easy-to-prepare training model for clinicians.
