The number shown in the Flow box indicates the total bleeding rate
for both upper and lower bleeding ports. Flow rate is shown in ml
per min.

1:1 to 1:10
To conserve blood from the manikin’s internal reservoir, set a higher
scale factor to scale down the manikin bleeding in relation to the
blood loss presented on the Instructor screen.
10 - Upper Port Bleeding
Activate the checkbox to open the upper bleeding port open. Move
slider to the left or click the ‘–‘ button to decrease bleeding rate. Move
slider to the right or click the ‘+’ button to increase bleeding rate
