This Infant Venous Access Simulator is a unique, anatomically correct representation of a 1.8kg, 40cm female baby developed to teach and practice the vascular accessing of newborns and infants, including the availability of those veins uniquely used in this age group.

There are barely discernable blue veins under the replaceable translucent 'skins' on the head, right and left arms and the right leg.  Veins are now made with latex free Dermalike™ - with 50% less needle drag when accessing and improved tear resistance to permit a greater number of needle 'sticks'.  The veins presented include the temporal, external jugular, post-auricular, basilic, cephalic, saphenous and popliteal. 

When accessing, a 'pop' is felt as the needle enters the vein followed by a realistic 'flashback' of simulated blood confirming the proper needle placement. The veins were specifically designed to have a small internal diameter, as you would find on a small baby, to make accessing more challenging, improving technique and confidence.  The Infant Venous Access Simulator enables you to practice accessing, securing, dressing , site care and maintenance for standard IV's and PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter).
