This Life/form Total Parenteral Nutrition and Heart Catheterisation Simulator LF01012 has been designed to train staff in the techniques of performing central venous catheterisation. All appropriate landmarks are palpable for realistic identification of insertion sites.

The training model's life-like synthetic skin may be removed from shoulder to reveal dissected musculature and location of veins, arteries, and other landmarks. With the skin in place, you can actually insert the needle introducer which provides a dramatically realistic tactile sensation.

Artificial blood is connected to provide confirmation of proper needle location when "blood" flows from needle, just like the real thing! Venous catheters can be snaked into place once the introducer is properly inserted. Use of a Swan-Ganz catheter is possible.

Skin and veins will stand up to repeated puncture to allow training by dozens of staff members. The Life/form skin and veins are easily replaced once worn. Also practice proper care of the puncture site and parenteral administration of fluids and practice measuring central venous pressure and bandaging techniques. In emergency medical training programmes, practice delivery of large volumes of fluids in trauma. Inject for swift action as required for cardiac life support procedures.

The TPN Simulator comes with fluid supply bags, replaceable skin, tubing sealant, needles, one litre of Life/form blood, and teaching guide in a hard carry case included. Fluid supply stand not included. Replacement Skin (LF01013), Lubricant Kit (LF00985) and Artificial Venous Blood (LF00846) available.
