Replacing Veins and Skin:

When excessive leaking occurs at puncture sites,
either a new multi-vein system or skin should be
installed to reduce loss of fluid. The recommended
work area is at a sink.

knife or scalpel.

Replacing Veins:

1. Lubricate inside of skin with liquid detergent.
2. Begin at top of arm and roll skin down and of arm and
