Description
What this equipment is and what it's designed for.
Realistic paediatric arm made of extra-soft, durable silicone, newborn size, with two integrated silicone veins that are partially visible and can be palpated. The circuit is filled with red-tinted water using two syringes connected by luer.
Keeping pressure on the syringes produces flashback on cannulation, and the arm also allows blood sampling. After use, the tube can be rotated or moved within the model, or replaced with the spare tube. The superficial punctures that appear with use are repaired with the included silicone.
