VATA DEBUTS WEARABLE TWO-VEIN IV ACCESS TRAINER

VATA Introduces New Wearable Infusion Model For Advanced Clinical Simulation

May 8, 2025 (CANBY, Ore.) – VATA Inc., a leading creator of anatomical healthcare models, is excited to introduce the Wearable Two-Vein IV Access Trainer—an innovative tool designed to elevate venipuncture training by combining essential clinical skills with patient interaction.

This new wearable infusion model allows healthcare professionals to practice their venipuncture technique and patient communication in one seamless experience. With the ability to withstand 1,800+ accesses using a 20g IV catheter, the trainer provides a realistic simulation of IV insertion and gives users the opportunity to interact with a training partner.

Great care was taken in the design of this model to ensure it replicates the challenges healthcare professionals face in patient care. As the catheter enters the vein, users experience a realistic “flashback” of simulated blood—confirming proper needle placement. This not only builds hand-eye coordination and confidence but also improves competency in real-world clinical settings. The addition of a rigid backing to the skin pad prevents accidental needle sticks, ensuring a safe learning experience.

“Effective patient care is about more than just technical skill—it’s about how clinicians communicate with patients throughout the process,” shared Andrew Call, President of VATA. “This trainer seamlessly combines skill development with patient interaction, allowing clinicians to refine their technique while enhancing their ability to communicate with clarity and compassion.”

Priced at just $248, the Wearable Two-Vein IV Access Trainer is a cost-effective alternative to traditional IV practice arms, ideal for nurses, EMTs, paramedics, students and anyone looking to improve their venipuncture skills in a safe, realistic, and interactive environment.
