REBOA Module

Everything for resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta — from the physiology of the two-compartment balloon to a hands-on, live-physiology trainer. Read first, then put it into your hands.

📘

Learn

The teaching guide: the two compartments, drawing above vs below the balloon and acting on the discrepancy, the titration dial, EtCO₂ & the gap, the lab levers, reperfusion, and the ICU watch list — every rule linked to its CPG/corpus page.

🎮

Simulate

A live-physiology trainer: make the calls, titrate the balloon in 0.2 mL steps, sample proximal/distal, transfuse, run the deflation kit — with branching decisions, curveball complications, and clickable rationale. Five scenarios incl. a postop ICU module.

Scores are practice feedback from an illustrative model, not a competence rating.
