Preparing simulated blood & fluids
Preparing the tibial IO with blood
Attach an IV bag to the tibial tube.
Close off the pinch clamp.
Roll down leg skin to access the tibial IO module.
Remove the IO tape.
Lift out the module from the leg.
Remove the tube from the module.
Fill the module with 30-35 ml of simulated blood.
Connect the tube to the module and insert it into the leg. Feed the drain tube out of the back of the leg to ensure that there are no kinks.
Secure with tape.
Roll up the leg skin.

Roll the right leg skin down to expose the fill panel. Lift the panel cover.
Connect the blood fill bottle tubes to the relevant inlet and the air outlet in the right leg panel.
Turn on the Activate Filling. The button will light up and blood will flow into the Patient Simulator.
When the flow stops, disconnect the fill bottle.
Turn off the Activate Filling.
NOTES
Disconnect tubes from the Patient Simulator before turning off the Activate Fill button. Turning the fill button off before disconnecting the tubes will initiate draining of the tank.
Only one tank can be filled at a time.
Filling the fluids internal tank
