Features

The Haemodialysis Practice Arm provides the realistic appearance and performance needed for effective haemodialysis access training. Designed for both clinical trainees and patient education, the simulator features a palpable fistula site that can be pressurised with artificial blood, producing a realistic flashback when the needle is inserted to confirm correct placement.

The included artificial blood is formulated to approximate the pale colouration typically observed in dialysis patients, adding visual realism to training scenarios. The replaceable skin and vascular system allow the trainer to be easily maintained and prepared for repeated practice sessions, making it well suited to high-throughput dialysis training programmes.

• System can be pressurised with artificial blood for flashback confirmation
• Artificial blood approximates pale colouration seen in dialysis patients
• Replaceable skin and vascular system for extended training life
