Hands-on Training

REBOA Workshop

Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA):
From Fundamentals to Clinical Application

Overview

This interactive hands-on course is designed for physicians involved in trauma, emergency medicine, acute care surgery, critical care, vascular surgery, interventional radiology, and obstetric hemorrhage management. Participants will gain practical experience in REBOA deployment, balloon management strategies, and scenario-based decision making through expert-led lectures, simulation training, and case discussions.
