DESCRIPTION
The Simulaids IV training arm units are designed to train personnel in procedures and techniques in starting IVs and venipuncture. The student can palpate the arm and hand, which are made of a supple PVC material that replicates the texture and feel of human skin. When the vein is located and the needle inserted, blood may be drawn or fluid injected. Arms are made to withstand repeated use.
Proper IV insertion is a necessary practice for phlebotomist, IV therapist and nurses. This trainer is perfect for allowing students to explore these techniques in a controlled environment. It permits detailed exercises in venipuncture so that the technique can be mastered on a realistic model before actually administering to patients.
Students can palpate the arm, which is made of supple, resilient plastic with a human feel. The vein is located, the needle introduced, and blood is withdrawn or fluid injected. The model can be used repeatedly. Includes blood powder and carrying tray. No needle included. Three-year warranty.
