 The authors have developed a new model for chronic vascular access in rabbits using a vascular access button, VAB. This model has been found to be effective and reliable, with a high patency rate and minimal complications. It is a viable alternative to existing methods of chronic vascular access in rabbits, providing a convenient and reliable means of collecting blood samples and administering drugs.
