Popis: This study evaluated soft-embalmed human cadavers for ultrasound needle-guidance training. Second-year medical students used peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) line and central line models and a Thiel-embalmed cadaver for training and provided feedback. Most (85%) agreed the cadaver was useful. There were positive correlations between performing the PICC line (r=0.44, P=.11) and central line (r=0.63, P=.03) procedures on a cadaver and in a clinical setting. Thiel-embalmed cadavers may provide important hands-on training.
