• How do I maintain the tubing in my Nasco Life/form IV Arm?

  After each use, fully drain the synthetic blood and flush the system with clean water until it runs clear. Do not allow simulated blood to dry in the simulator, and ensure needles are not burred to prevent leaks.

• Where can I find replacement parts for Nasco simulators?

  Parts such as replacement skin, veins, artificial blood, and lubricant kits can be purchased directly from the Nasco Healthcare website or authorized distributors. You can reference specific part numbers found in your user manual.

• What size needles are recommended for Nasco injection trainers?

  Nasco strongly recommends using smaller diameter needles, such as 20- to 25-gauge, to significantly prolong the life of the replaceable skin and veins. Never use dull or burred needles.
