Laerdal IM Hip Task Trainer - Manual (Page 5)

Preparing the simulator for use:
1. Place muscle and bone inside skin until it fits snugly.
2. Fasten Velcro
®
strap to keep bone and muscle in place.
Instructions for use:
1. Use the smallest gauge needle possible to demonstrate
injection technique. We suggest a 21 gauge or smaller.
2. Water or other innocuous material may be used in the
syringe if desired. Do not use saline solution; it can
deteriorate the material of the hip.
3. After use, squeeze our water, but do not twist.
4. Leave in a well ventilated area to dry.
Care and Maintenance:
1. Clean with mild soap and water; do not submerse
trainer or parts in cleaning fluids or water.
2. Use only on clean surface. Avoid felt tipped markers, ink
pens, acetone, iodine or other staining products and
avoid placing the trainer on newsprint or inked lines of
any kind.
3. To ensure longevity, the trainer should be cleaned after
each training session and a general inspection should be
conducted regularly.
4. Modules and all other parts should be drained and air-
dried thoroughly before storage and disinfected when
needed.
5. Articulating parts will benefit from a light application of
talcum powder prior to training sessions.
6. Store properly between teaching sessions.
