Geriatric IV Training Arm, 140-610

$970.95

Description

Realistic Geriatric Design: The arm is constructed from a lifelike, durable material that accurately mimics the feel of fragile, translucent skin and the delicate, often less-prominent veins of an elderly patient. This realism is essential for a true-to-life training experience.
Practice IV and Phlebotomy: The arm is designed for a variety of procedures, including venipuncture, IV catheter insertion, and fluid administration. It features a realistic blood flashback, providing immediate confirmation of a successful venous access.
Replaceable Parts: The skin and veins are designed to be replaced, which allows the arm to be used repeatedly for long-term training.
Fluid System: The arm comes with an integrated fluid system that can be filled with simulated blood. This allows for realistic blood draws and the administration of IV fluids.
Portable and Standalone: The arm is lightweight and comes with a carrying tray, making it easy to set up in a classroom, clinic, or for individual practice.

The Geriatric IV Training Arm is used in healthcare education to:

Teach Specialized IV Access: It provides a hands-on platform for students to learn and practice the critical skill of IV access on a geriatric patient, a skill that requires a different approach due to factors like thin skin and fragile veins.
Improve Procedural Confidence: The realism of the arm and the ability to get immediate feedback with a blood flashback help students build confidence and proficiency in a safe, low-stakes environment.
Supplement Clinical Training: It can be used to prepare students for real-world clinical rotations, ensuring they have mastered the necessary skills before working on live patients, particularly in nursing homes or geriatric care facilities.
Support Self-Paced Learning: Because it's a standalone unit, it can be used for individual, self-paced practice, allowing students to train on their own schedule without direct instructor supervision.
