    Advanced Venipuncture Training Aid™ - Model 1365/1366

    Thank you for your purchase of VATA’s - Advanced Venipuncture Training Aid™, Model 1365/1366.

    This model is now made with two of VATA’s newly developed materials, Dermalike II™ and Dermalike V™. Dermalike II™, when used according to the instructions, offers many unique and improved properties.Some of the properties are:• 60% less needle drag when puncturing, which results in a much more realistic

    experience• Improved tear resistance, extending the useful life of the product• Feels and palpates like human tissue for a more realistic learning experience• Stain resistant

    Now 100% latex free!

    The veins are made of VATA’s Dermalike V™. This material has properties more similar to real veins in comparison to the latex tubing we previously used and is still used by other manufacturers.

    The Advanced Venipuncture Training Aid™ features four barely discernable blue veins in 3 different diameters – with the fourth vein deeply placed in a semi-transparent, tissue-like material. A “pop” is felt as the needle enters the vein, followed by a realistic “flashback” of simulated blood confirming the proper needle placement. An optional carrying case, with storage pouch for supplies, is available. This simple, easy to set-up, lightweight, compact, non-staining and cost-effective training model is an alternative to bulky, heavier and more expensive models.

    Please read the entire User’s Manual carefully before using the model to ensure that you understand the proper care and use of this device. This will also avoid situations that may not be covered by the warranty, and help you to enjoy the maximum benefit.

    With exceptional “true to life” feel when accessing and the elimination of potential reactions for those with latex sensitivity – this is a truly welcome advancement in anatomical teaching models.

    We understand that cost and useful life are important concerns when selecting teaching models. We are pleased to offer a refurbishing service, to restore the model to new condition.

    As always we welcome your suggestions and comments concerning our products, as many significant improvements and new product ideas have been the result of our customer’s suggestions.

    Notes:• Do not place the Dermalike II™ tissue pad in contact with products made of

    vinyl or PVC for prolonged periods of time, as the chemicals in them will cause degradation of the Dermalike II™.

    • Store flat to avoid deformation. Do not store with items on top of the tissue pad as it will take on the impression permanently. Always store with the backing plate/cover in place over the Dermalike II™ tissue pad.

    Helpful Hints• There are four veins of three different sizes in the model. The lower portion of

    the backing plate shows red circles that are the same size as the inside of the veins for visualization of the spaces when accessing. The large vein on the left is deeply placed.

    • All veins will produce a realistic “flashback” when you access.• The tissue block of Dermalike II™ is stain resistant.• The life of the veins will be maximized by the use of 20g needles in the large and

    medium veins. The small vein should be accessed with a 24g or smaller needle.• Avoid the use of dull or burred needles as these will damage the veins and

    cause premature leakage.• Depending on use, over time, it may become necessary to replace the tissue

    block and veins of the model. This can be done by contacting VATA for our refurbishing service.

    • The simulated blood is only for use in models and is not intended for any other use. We do not recommend using simulated blood item 2491 and 2494 with this model.

    • Should you need to disconnect the fluid bag, push on the metal portion of the quick disconnect See 7 . There may be several drops of simulated blood on the end of the connectors that can be absorbed using a Q-Tip or paper towel.

    • Our simulated blood is stain resistant. For best results, rinse fabric with cold, running water as soon as possible after coming into contact with simulated blood.

    • Cleaning of the tissue pad is best done by wiping with an alcohol wetted, non-linting cloth. The pad should be permitted to air dry and then powdered with cornstarch baby talc. Any excess talc can be removed with a dry cloth. If at any time the skin flap becomes tacky to the touch, talc should be applied.

  • Simulated Blood Fluid BagThe model is supplied with a simulated blood bag containing 80 cc’s. When simulated blood needs to added to the bag, disconnect the blood bag by pushing on the metal portion of the quick disconnect. There may be several drops of simulated blood on the end of the connectors that can be absorbed using a Q-Tip or paper towel. Fill an appropriately sized syringe with VATA’s simulated blood. Attach the syringe to the needle-less valve at the center of the bag and infuse.

    Should you wish to remove excess air from the bag, push the syringe plunger all the way to the bottom of the syringe. Position the needle-less valve to be the highest point of the bag and attach the syringe. While keeping the valve at the highest point, draw back on the syringe to remove the air. This procedure can be repeated as many times as necessary to remove excess air.
