Draining Excess IV Fluid

The IV fluid system is an open system. IV fluids are drained as they are
administered.
Before each session:
1. Attach the IV overflow tube (in the Simulator's right arm) to an
overflow container (such as an IV bag).
2. Allow excess fluid to drain into a container during the simulation.

Cleaning the IV Arm

Clean the IV arm after each session or day of use by flushing the IV
Arm with 60% isopropanol or 70% ethanol.

Installing Defibrillation Adapter Plates

The Simulator torso is fitted with two stud connectors for defibrillator
cables. Before attempting defibrillation, you must unscrew and remove
the defibrillator stud covers.
Two defibrillation adapter plates are packaged with the Simulator. The
defibrillator adapter plates must be fitted in place before using a live
defibrillator with defibrillation paddles or adhesive pads. Screw the
adapter plates firmly into place.
During Defibrillation
A conventional defibrillator (not included) may be used on the
SimJunior. During live defibrillation, the defibrillator and Simulator may
present a shock hazard. All standard safety precautions must be taken
when using the defibrillator on the Simulator.
Caution: The Simulator must not be in contact with electrically
conductive surfaces or objects during defibrillation.

Warnings:
– Defibrillation must be performed on the defibrillator connectors
only.
– Do not press too hard over the defibrillation adapters as this
may cause arcing and pitting.
– Do not defibrillate the Simulator without the torso skin in place.

Connecting the Blood Pressure Cuff

The Simulator is delivered with a customized Blood Pressure Cuff.
Connect the tube to the white BP connector on back of the Link
Box before use.
Note: The speaker for the Simulator's blood pressure is
located in the left antecubital fossa, circled below. The radial
and brachial pulses are located in the rectangular areas.
