Cleaning
Prior to turning off EMITT-TMU, the IV system and sucking chest wound should
be drained of all simulated blood and flushed with potable water.
IMPORTANT: Make sure there is no water or simulated blood in
EMITT-TMU blood system prior to storing the EMITT-TMU unit.
To drain and clean the EMITT-TMU IV system:
1. Attach the 120 ml luer syringe provided (completely depressed) into the
drain connector in the wrist and pull back on the plunger until you hear a
sucking sound indicating the bladder is empty
2. Inject 50 ml of clean water through the shoulder inlet port and the withdraw
it out through the wrist port

1. Fill the provided small syringe with clean water
2. Attach syringe to the small port to the right of the sucking chest wound
3. Depress syringe to flush out the wound site
To clean EMITT-TMU’s exterior features:
1. Gently clean EMITT-TMU after each use with water only (never use
abrasive materials on EMITT-TMU’s skin).
2. If stains persist on EMITT-TMU’s exterior, gently clean with a soft wet
cloth or sponge. DO NOT vigorously scrub EMITT-TMU’s skin or surface
area as this can remove hair and skin coloring, and cause permanent
abrasions.

standard laundry techniques, but should be cleaned separately from other
items to avoid discoloration. Simulated bloodstains should be pre-treated
and washed out of clothes within 24 hours to avoid permanent staining.
