Home / Medical simulators / Injections / Standard Venipuncture Arm

The new and improved Standard Venipuncture Arm is an ideal trainer for basic and advanced learning. Incorporating a unique skin-locking system (patent pending) and modular vein systems to accurately simulate venipuncture, IV cannulation, and IV infusion training.

What are the benefits of these new model Venipuncture arms?

Unique Skin Locking System - ensures the model is easy to re-skin whilst maintaining the lifelike palpability and haptics of the underlying basilic, cephalic, dorsal metacarpal and median cubital veins.

Vein Gripping - new innovative vein gripping mechanism works in conjunction with the new arm skin to further enhance realistic and repeatable training.

Modular Metacarpal & ACF Veins - splitting the basic vein structure into two separate modules allows for better cost efficiency, ease of use, and replacing sections individually will reduce waste.

Gravity System Blood Supply - improvements to stability of the mock blood flow simulator, and extended tubing, allow for greater versatility during simulated patient training exercises.

SKILLS GAINED

• Intravenous Cannulation in dorsal metacarpal and ACF sites
• IV infusion
• Venipuncture
• Practice of aseptic techniques
• Communications skills when using a simulated patient

OVERVIEW

• New and improved skin-locking system (patent pending) improves arm re-skinning after replacing a vein module
• New vein gripping system allows for easy re-fitting and positioning of veins
• Veins are palpable with realistic haptics for accurate clinical use
• Infusion tube allows for intravenous fluids to be administered
• Improved, gravity blood system

REALISM

• Arm provides a realistic blood flashback upon insertion of needle
• Improved arm skin offers a more realistic look and feel
• Vein module is palpable through the arm skin
• Realistic representation of the antecubital fossa (SCF) and metacarpal regions
• Gripping systems secures veins in a true-to-life position

VERSATILITY

• Arm is compatible with vacuum blood collection systems, needles & syringe, and IV cannulas
• Extended tubing allows for extra maneuverability in the classroom for use with a simulated patient

CLEANING

• Flush liquid from the vein and fluid system before storing your product
• Clean the skin surface with a damp soft cloth, using warm water and mild detergent
• Allow skin to thoroughly dry before storing

SAFETY

• Only use Concentrated Venous Blood supplied with the arms, or product numbers 00020 & 00021, other fluids may weaken or damage the venipuncture simulator
• Use water-based lubricant to fit arm skin over the venipuncture arm base
• Veins contain latex, however, these are covered by the silicone arm skin during procedures
