IV Arm
When excessive leaking occurs at the puncture sites, a new vein and
skin should be installed to reduce loss of fluid. Ideally, the skin and
veins should be replaced near a sink.
To remove the arm:
Remove deltoid pad from arm. Disconnect the attachment
hardware arm using a screwdriver.
1)If replacing both skin and veins, cut skin off and discard.
The thumb will detach with the skin (new skins come standard
with thumb installed).
2)If the skin is not damaged and you wish to reuse it, lubricate
inside of skin with liquid detergent. Beginning at the top of the
arm, roll the skin down and off arm and hand.
3) Remove old veins and discard.
4) Use acetone or equivalent to remove spots of old glue from vein
grooves. Dry and swab grooves with alcohol. Place new veins
along grooves, extending both veins beyond arm at least
10cm (4”) allowing room for connections. Spot glue veins as
needed. We recommend using “Vynabond” or “VLP” from PDI
(Plasti Dip International), “PL 400” from Tremco or an equivalent.
To replace skin:
1) Roll top of skin down to the hand. Spread liquid detergent
generously over lower part of the arm. Holding skin and arm with
palms upward slide hand into skin, working the skin over the
fingers as with a glove. Then, roll the skin up the arm.
2) Reattach arm when finished.
