Cleaning the Internal Systems
The internal systems of the maternal mannequin must be cleaned after each simulation session. Only
the systems that were used need to be cleaned.
Cleaning the IV System
To clean the IV system:
1. Connect an empty 140 mL syringe to the IV DRAIN port located on the left
side of the simulator’s torso.
The Battery Compartment and Ports
2. Slowly withdraw air from the port until a vacuum is formed. If only clear
fluid was injected into the IV system during use, the cleaning procedure is
complete.
IMPORTANT: If colored fluid was injected in the IV system, complete the Priming the IV System
instructions in the Using Lucina section with clear fluids and complete the Cleaning the IV system
instructions for a second time.
Cleaning the Bleeding System
The bleeding system needs to be cleaned with distilled water after simulated blood has been used.
Once a month, flush the system with a 50/50 mix of distilled water and white vinegar to keep mineral
and algae build up to a minimum. Always flush with distilled water to remove any trace amounts of
vinegar.
NOTE: The mannequin should be configured for a postpartum SCE prior to cleaning the bleeding
system, with the blood tank and postpartum uterus installed.
1. Make sure the tank has been drained of any simulated blood.
