“…Various simulation models, both bench top and bovine, have been described for the training of CEA with varying results. 3,5,[15][16][17][18][19][20][21] Given the limited opportunity for trainees to perform CEA and the delicate nature of the procedure, we decided to conduct this systematic review to look at the different models available and assess their benefits. The main objective of this systematic review was to identify different types of simulators used for the training of CEA and to assess the usefulness of all such simulators considered for simulated training on CEA.…”

Vascular surgery trainees often do not get to perform carotid endarterectomy (CEA) directly on the patients as it requires meticulous surgical technique and has a high risk of procedure-related complications. Hence, the role of simulation in training future vascular surgeons becomes essential. This review aims to assess the types and utility of simulators available for CEA. In this systematic review, all the studies performed on CEA simulation were included. The purpose of this review was to assess different types of simulators and their usefulness for CEA. We identified 122 articles, of which 10 were eligible for review. A variety of simulators, ranging from animal models, virtual reality simulators and commercially designed models with high fidelity options were used. Technical competence was the major domain assessed in the majority of the studies (n=8), whereas four studies evaluated anatomical and procedural knowledge. Blinding was done in five studies for assessment purposes. The majority of studies (n=9) found the simulation to be an effective tool for achieving technical competence. This review shows the potential usefulness of simulation in acquiring technical skills and procedural acumen for CEA. The available literature is unfortunately too diverse to have a common recommendation.
