Advanced Venipuncture Arm (Light Skin Tone)

The Advanced Venipuncture Arm can be used to accurately simulate venipuncture, IV cannulation, and IV infusion.

Limbs & Things venipuncture arms accurately represent the key haptics of veins in a male right arm. Using palpation, trainees can determine the location of the veins to draw a blood sample or administer an intravenous injection.

The mock blood system offers a real-life training experience. Trainees will experience realistic blood pressure, blood flashback when entering the vein, and stemmed flow with digital pressure.

This model retains popular features of the original venipuncture range, including, realistic blood flashback, vein haptics and soft flexible skin. To increase user experience within the classroom, enhancements have been made to improve its ease of use and durability.

Benefits of Advanced Venipuncture Arm:

• Overview
  • Vein structures are now modular with a separate ACF vein and Metacarpal Vein, allowing for replacement of individual parts
  • 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
  • Advanced Pump System reduces internal leakage for a more user-friendly experience
  • Veins are palpable with realistic haptics for accurate clinical use
  • Infusion tube allows for intravenous fluids to be administered
  • Includes pressurized blood system
• Realism
  • Arm provides a realistic blood flashback upon insertion of needle
  • Improved arm skin offers a more realistic look and feel
  • Veins in the metacarpal & ACF modules are palpable
  • Realistic representation of the antecubital fossa (SCF) and metacarpal regions
  • With the Advanced Pump, the advanced venipuncture arm operates at an accurate blood pressure
  • 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
• Anatomy
  • Sites for peripheral venous cannulation – Dorsal metacarpal vein in the hand, Antecubital Fossa (ACF) vein in the arm
  • Metacarpal Vein Module anatomy  – Basilic vein , Cephalic vein, Dorsal metacarpal veins
  • ACF Vein Module anatomy  – Basilic vein, Cephalic vein, Median cubital vein

Skills Gained with Advanced Venipuncture Arm:

• Intravenous Cannulation in dorsal metacarpal and ACF sites
