Arterial And Venous Exercises - Gaumard S402.100 User Manual

ARTERIAL AND VENOUS EXERCISES

The training arm simulates the following arteries
and veins:
• Cephalic vein (Antecubital vein)
• Median cubital vein
• Basilic vein
• Radial vein
• Ulnar vein
• Radial artery and Brachial artery
An internal pump located in the shoulder allows
for variable pulse rate and intensity without the
need for external pumps.
The skin and veins are designed to show a
minute leakage when an eccentric puncture is
performed. A "perfect" stick will show little or no
leakage.
The A&V insert can, therefore, also be used for
surgical interventions, such as the placement of
an AV graft or the creation of an AV fistula.
Standard IV exercises can be performed in all
vessels, including the arterial ones.
The radial and brachial artery can be converted
to the veins by turning the pump controls to their
minimum value and disconnecting the power
supply.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
If the system hasn't been primed refer to the
"Priming the System" section above.
Notice that these instructions are
applicable for the both, the SMASH
arm S402.100 and S263.100 SMASH
arm with attachable shoulder.
1. Place the simulator on a level surface.
2. Apply the desired pressure to the veins via
the squeeze bulb. Increasing the pressure
allows for stronger flashback.
3. Proceed with the arterial and venous
exercises.
4. Disconnect the wrist band before to feel and
adjust the pulses.
5. Adjust the radial and brachial pulse rate and
intensity using the controls in the shoulder
panel.
6. When the training session is completed,
proceed to drain the system.
