More Information
Summary:A catheter simulator (10) of the invention has a container (20) filled with a liquid; an elastic heart model (30) installed in a floating state in the liquid with which the container (20) is filled; and a pump (50) connected to the heart model (30). The pump (50) is connected to an apex section of the heart model and produces a pulsatile flow from the apex section toward an aorta. Coronary arteries (33) provided on the surface of a main body (30A) of the heart model (30), pulsate together with the main body as a result of the pulsatile flow flowing from the pump (50).
