5. Push fluid into the arm until
no air bubbles are seen
6. Close the clamp when the
priming process is completed
To simulate a patient with no accessible peripheral IV sites, connect only
the syringe. Pull the plunger to create suction, which will collapse the
veins. Disconnect the syringe tube from the arm port while maintaining
suction. The port will seal, and the veins will remain collapsed.
Cleaning the Vasculature
Clean and dry the forearm vasculature at the end of the simulation
session to prevent mold or clogs.
To clean and dry the IV arm:
1. Fill the filling syringe with 70% isopropyl alcohol
2. Connect the fill syringe and the
drain tube to arm
3. Open the drainage clamp
4. Flush the vasculature with 70%
isopropyl alcohol solution.
