Cardiac and Thoracic Simulator

Alberto 4.0 is the latest iteration of our advanced surgical torso simulator, designed to provide a realistic training experience for cardiac and thoracic procedures. Originally designed to work seamlessly with the KindHeart Simulator, Alberto 4.0 can be used as a wet or dry model. 

Key Features

  • Anatomically Accurate Layers: Realistic synthetic skin, fat, muscle, and ribs mimicking thoracic anatomy.

  • Dynamic Simulation: Supports a beating, perfused porcine heart for true-to-life cardiac motion.

  • Hands-On Surgical Practice: Enables procedures such as median sternotomy, vessel dissection, cannulation, and cardiopulmonary bypass setup.

  • Versatile Training Use: Ideal for surgical residency programs, technical skills development, and human factors research.

  • Enhanced Learning: Helps improve operative confidence, precision, and decision-making in a controlled environment.

Alberto 4.0 is designed to support the study and practice of implant procedures. Used by several surgical training programs, it helps clinicians build proficiency in cardiac and thoracic interventions by providing a realistic and adaptable simulation environment.
