What veins are included for IV access practice?
The arm includes median, cephalic, and basilic veins — the three most commonly accessed peripheral veins in clinical practice — with both black tubing for visual identification and clear tubing for palpation-based technique.
How does the flashback confirmation work?
Successful catheter placement triggers a visible simulated flashback effect, giving learners immediate confirmation of correct vessel entry and reinforcing the technique before moving to real patients.
Can it also be used for IM injection practice?
Yes. The arm includes a dedicated intramuscular injection site, making it a dual-function trainer for both peripheral IV catheterisation and IM injection skills on a single model.
How durable is the skin under repeated needle use?
The self-healing synthetic skin supports repeated punctures with 22G or smaller needles without significant wear, and the mold-resistant construction keeps the model viable across extended training periods.
