Abstract
A pulsatile flow generating pump for a catheter simulator, which makes it possible to conveniently perform catheter operation training is provided. The pump () includes a cylinder () provided inside with a piston performing a reciprocating motion; a driving motor () causing the piston to perform a reciprocating motion; a link mechanism () converting the rotational motion of the driving motor () to the reciprocating motion of the piston; an extrusion port (), through which a liquid inside the cylinder is extruded to the outside by the piston; a suction port (), through which a liquid from the outside is sucked into the cylinder; and a control unitfor controlling the rotation of the driving motor. The control unitcontrols the driving motorso as to output pulsatile flows at a rate of 20 times to 200 times per minute.
