Arterial Puncture Arm Simulator is the most realistic training simulator possible for
demonstrating and practicing arterial injections. Visual as well as tactile realism is designed into
this training aid to allow students to develop the skills necessary to learn how to draw arterial blood
samples.
Both radial and brachial arterial punctures can be practiced. The arterial system provides pulsation
to allow proper practice in locating arteries.
(See figure 1.)
Great effort has been put into the development and design of this medical simulator to provide
maximum realism and durability. Careful selection of synthetic tubing has been made to provide
the most realistic sensation of puncture possible while still maintaining durability for long life. With
proper care, your
