- Many procedures can be carried out before a replacement skin is required
- A realistic sensation is felt when the skin and vein are penetrated
- When charged with artificial blood, a realistic ‘flashback’ confirms correct needle location in the vein and blood can then be withdrawn
- Continuous vein system, and innovative two bottle sealed blood assembly, greatly reduce the risk of leakage
- The working veins, which can be identified from the ‘blind veins’ by palpation, are made from a material with self sealing characteristics that can be penetrated many times
- The self-sealing material used for the veins, as well as the silicone skin, enhance durability
- Automatic pressure relief valve
- Replacement skins and veins are simple to fit
- The innovative sealed blood assembly reduces the risk of spillage as fluids can easily be pumped from one bottle to the other
- Special blanking plugs for the bottles are provided when transporting the arm
