IV Arm
Connect the IV Arm via the bolt by “clicking” it into place making
sure the grooves on the bolt fit properly to the hole on the torso.
Proper care of IV Arm
IV Arm – Multiple Venipuncture sites:
• Dorsal Veins of Hand (3)
• Antecubital
- Cephalic Vein
- Median Vein
- Basilic Vein
1
.
Attach IV bag to IV tubing.
2.
Attach IV tubing to either vein.
3.
Allow fluid to flow through arm and out other vein.
4.
Clamp off flow of water from open vein.
The arm is now ready to practice venipuncture.
A 22 gauge needle or smaller is recommended to extend the
life of the IV Arm. When using an IV catheter, lubricate with manikin
lubricant for easier insertion.
When excessive leaking occurs at puncture sites, either a new
vein system or skin should be installed to reduce loss of fluid.
We recommend working at a sink when replacing the skin and
vein system.
Replacing Skin and Veins:
If replacing both skin and veins, cut off skin.
This can be done with a sharp knife, scalpel or scissors.
When finished, discard skin.
Replacing veins: (Keeping skin)
1
.
Lubricate inside of skin with liquid detergent; let it flow down
into the finger area.
2.
Begin at top of arm and slowly pull skin down and off of arm.
Do not roll, as that will cause skin to bind.
3.
Remove tubing from track in mandrel. Glue may need to be
scraped away to allow removal.
4.
Rinse and dry vein grooves well and swab with alcohol.
Be sure to remove any excess glue.
5.
Place new veins along grooves, spot gluing as needed.
(We recommend fast-drying glue.)
6.
Generously lather arm mandrel with liquid soap.
7.
Slide hand into skin.
8.
Work skin over fingers, as with a glove.
9.
Work arm skin up, over mandrel.
Heat arms skins before replacing on mandrel.
This can be done with a blow-dryer.
Troubleshooting
If an error message appears on the remote control stating
“no reception”, make sure that the manikin is turned on.
