Gelatin Thoracic Paravertebral Teaching Model for Placement of a Continuous Infusion Catheter in the Extrathoracic Paravertebral Space

Our aim was to develop an ultrasound-guided training curriculum for continuous infusion catheter placement in the paravertebral space and to create a gelatin thoracic spine-rib model for use in this training. We sought to create a model that was inexpensive and reusable such that multiple participants could use one model during training.
