375-70001 Laerdal4
The Pediatric Multi-Venous IV Training Arm Kit is a
lifelike manikin arm, which realistically simulates a 6-
year-old patient. It is specifically designed for training
professionals in the practice of venipuncture.
As a result of quality construction and the ease of
replacing individual parts, this simulator should provide
many sessions of training when reasonable care and
maintenance are practiced.

Multiple Venipuncture sites:
•Dorsal Veins of Hand (3)
•Cephalic Vein
•Median Vein
•Basilic Vein
Instructions for Use:
1. Attach IV Bag to IV tubing.
2. Attach IV tubing to either vein.
3. Allow fluid to flow through
arm and out other vein.
4. Clamp off flow of water.
The arm is now ready to practice venipuncture.
Replacing Skin and Veins:
When excessive leaking occurs at puncture sites,
either a new multi-vein system or skin should be
installed to reduce loss of fluid. We recommend
working at a sink.
To replace skin and veins:
1. Cut off skin. This can be done with a sharp knife
or scalpel. (Figure1)
2. Discard skin.
Replacing veins: (Keeping skin)
1. Lubricate inside of skin with liquid detergent; let
it flow down into the finger area.
2. Begin at top of arm and slowly pull skin down
and off of arm. Do not roll, as that will cause skin
to bind. Thumb will detach with skin.
3. Remove tubing from track in mandrel. Glue may
need to be scraped away to allow removal.
4. Rinse and dry vein grooves well and swab with
alcohol. Be sure to remove any excess glue.

Use nothing larger than a
20-gauge catheter. This
