Venipuncture Training Aid has two barely discernable blue veins of different sizes placed in our proprietary Dermalike II™ semi-transparent flesh colored material. The veins are palpable across the surface of the soft tissue-like material – feels just like the real thing! The hand-eye coordination and tactile feel experienced on these models easily transfers to patient care. Model comes with a snap-on cover to protect the tissue pad when stored. 100% latex free. Cost effective, small and lightweight, a great model for staff to practice techniques and gain confidence when doing vascular access.
Your patients don’t have one size of veins, so why practice and learn on a “one size vein fits all” IV arm? Many clinicians have commented when using various other IV training models, “I wish all our patients had veins this big.” This model permits clinicians to learn technique and gain initial confidence when accessing the larger veins before moving to the smaller more difficult to access veins. The veins are palpable as you run your finger across the surface of the soft tissue-like material – feels just like the real thing! The hand-eye coordination and tactile feel experienced on these models easily transfers to patient care. When accessing, the skin rolls as the vein is palpated. Many hospitals and home health sites utilize these training aids to insure that the competency of all staff members is assessed, maintained, demonstrated and improved continually. Made from our proprietary Dermalike II™ material with 53% less needle drag when accessing the underlying veins and improved tear resistance to permit a greater number of needle “sticks”.
