5. Lay a Neck Skin Collar into molded track around neck area of the
manikin. (Fig 3) NOTE: If the used collar is still in good repair simply
slide the collar in either direction for a fresh site. If the collar is showing

6. Attach collar using Velcro ® strips.
Laerdal Recommends
The neck skin collar is designed to provide multiple sites for needle
and surgical techniques. When a fresh site is needed, slide the collar
in either direction. If the neck skin collar is showing wear, discard
and replace with a new collar.
IV Cannulation
After IV training is complete:
1. Close both clamps on IV tubing and detach bag tubing from arm tubing.
Fill a 100cc syringe with water. Flush IV arm with syringe. Note: This
should be done over a basin to catch any
2. Using the empty syringe push air through venous system to remove
excess water.
Intramuscular Injections
After intramuscular injection training is complete:
1. Remove sponge from inside of injection pad skin. NOTE: Do not store
wet foam pads in skin. This will cause shrinkage of injection
pad skin.
2. Rinse sponge with water, allowing it to dry overnight.
3. Insert sponge back into injection pad skin. NOTE: A small amount of
powder applied to sponge will ease insertion.
4. Replace the pad in the manikin.
Urinary Catheterization
After urinary catheterization is complete:
1. Remove complete genitalia assembly.
2. Working over a basin empty the reservoir.
3. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry overnight.
