Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) is considered to be a safe approach in placing a catheter in the central line and use of ultrasound guidance is recommended to reduce risk to patients. This brand-new simulator is the one and only model which provides training in full procedural skills from the needle insertion, manipulation of the PICC, to placement of the distal tip in the SVC. Both basilic and cephalic veins are prepared for access to set different levels of challenges in cannulation. The ultrasoundable puncture site is replaceable. The movable shoulder allows for training in positioning of the arm to avoid possible malposition of the catheter. Anatomically correct bifurcation of the vein in the upper chest provides realistic resistance of its outer walls and enables simulations of complications such as malposition of the catheter into the jugular, the thoracodorsal or the subclavian vein. The simulator is ideal for hands-on training of residents, specialist nurses and radiographers.
It has the following features:
Excellent image quality and visualization of the needle tip for ultrasound guided venous access
Movable shoulder
Provides training in a variety of procedures from needle insertion to catheter tip placement
„Flash-back“ con rmation of successful venous access
Ribs and right clavicle are included to determine length of the catheter as well as providing anatomical understanding of a correct PICC tip location.
Anatomically correct bifurcation of vein
Simulation of malposition of the cannula
Size: 40 x 60 x 15 cm

The only available teaching model which allows review of the principles and tools necessary to validate the knowledge and skills needed for Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) insertion.
Peter PICC is a portable, lightweight, teaching model featuring anatomically correct superior vena cava, subclavian, jugular, median basilic, basilic and cephalic veins. The moveable chin simulates the occlusion of the jugular vein which can prevent the PICC from taking this path.
This model enables staff to practice sterile technique in the set-up and insertion of the PICC line. Palpable ribs permit the practice of measuring proper catheter length from the insertion site to the second or third intercostal space and the confi rmation of proper placement of the distal tip of the catheter in the viewable superior vena cava. Standard IV catheter placement is also possible in the major veins, which are barely visible through the translucent arm skin.
Gain con dence and master the techniques of PICC insertion and then transfer these skills to patients.
Peter PICC Line is an upper torso model including, neck, chin, right arm, ribs, muscle tissue, arm skin, body skin, arm vein set, body vein set with viewable superior vena cava, fl uid bag with tubing and a durable, soft-sided cloth carrying case with an additional pouch for supplies.
