IV Arm
WARNING: Vein tubing contains latex which may cause allergic reac-
tions. Users allergic or sensitive to latex should avoid contact. Dis-
continue use of this product and seek medical attention if an allergic
reaction occurs.
· Only use liquid colorant for simulated blood. Simulated blood contain-
ing sugar or any additive may cause blockage and/or interruption of
the vasculature system.
· The use of needles larger than 22 gauge will reduce the lifetime
of the lower arms’ skin and veins.
· Always purge with clean water and then drain the vein reservoirs at the
end of the simulation session. Doing so will retard the formation of
mold and prevent clogging of the system.
· We recommend flushing veins with 70:30 solution of clean water to
isopropyl alcohol (IPA) at least once per month to prolong the life of
the vasculature.
· When the arm skin and/or veins require replacement, refer to the
“Consumables” section of this guide. For more information regarding
the replacement of veins and other consumable items please contact
customer service.
