4.4 INTRAVENOUS (IV) ARM (S222.100)
•
The IV right arm can be used for infusion,
blood collection, intravenous injection,
intramuscular injection, TB screening,
and subcutaneous injection exercises.
•
The arm and hand contain venous grooves, fitted
with soft latex tubes to simulate the consistency
of veins. Covering the venous structure is a
pliable vinyl skin that is removable and washable.
NOTE: Always flush the IV system with distilled
water at the end of every simulation.
CAUTION: Use only Gaumard’s provided simulated blood. Any other simulated blood brand
containing sugar or any additive may cause blockage and/or interruption of the vasculature.
