Abstract: A synthetic skin patch for a medical needle insertion training device. The training device has a training region, at least one synthetic vein in the training region, and a plurality of fastening structures positioned about the training region. The skin patch comprises an elastic, substantially flat central body, and a plurality of connectors positioned about the perimeter of the central body. The connectors positionally match and mate with the fastening structures on the training device to secure the skin patch to the training device over the training region.

Abstract: A medical needle insertion training apparatus having an elongated and generally cylindrical body with a central axis and a hollow cavity for storing components of the apparatus. The body has two training regions on its outer surface. A set of legs extend from the body opposite each training region to selectively support each training region in an upward facing orientation. The legs share a common leg between them.

Abstract: A modular medical training apparatus having a body shaped like an upper torso and configured to house a plurality of self-contained needle insertion training devices. Preferably, the body will house at least one self-contained needle insertion training devices in the forearm of the torso for catheter needle insertions training and at least one in the front upper chest area for needle decompression insertion training. Also disclosed is a readily replaceable simulated vein strip for needle insertion training devices including such components of the modular training apparatus, and a simulated vein with index markings to facilitate length determination for use with needle insertion training devices including such components of the modular training apparatus.

Abstract: A self-contained medical needle insertion training system is provided. In various embodiments, the system includes a hollow body having at least one sidewall, a closed end, an opposing open end and an interior chamber. The system additionally includes a closure device structured and operable to mate with the open end to close the interior chamber and a simulated cardiovascular vein disposed along an outer surface of the at least one sidewall, wherein the interior chamber provides a storage space for medical devices to be used in association with the training system. The system also includes a simulated cardiovascular vein having a plurality of fluid reservoirs.

Abstract: A self-contained medical needle decompression training apparatus is provided. In various embodiments, the system includes a hollow body having at least one sidewall, a closed end, an opposing open end and an interior chamber. The apparatus additionally includes a closure device structured and operable to mate with the open end to close the interior chamber and an orifice on the sidewall of the apparatus that is configured to snugly receive a decompression needle. The orifice may include pads or plugs of pliant material to simulate human flesh, simulated ribs on each side of the orifice, and a bladder in the chamber to simulate air pockets in a human body, such as for example a lung. The interior chamber provides a storage space for medical devices to be used in association with the training system, such as for example medical decompression syringes, needles, flesh pads and replaceable bladders.
