Attachable Vein Injection Practice Kit: Its Development and Features

Fusogom Manufacturing, the developer of KAREN, has a 60-year history of providing the highest-quality rubber products for architectural and interior use. Based on a request from Professor Kawakami of the Nursing Medicine Department of Jichi Medical University, Fusogom used its advanced knowledge of silicone rubber technologies to develop a specialty injection training device for nurses and doctors-in-residence. Using its in-house patents, that research culminated in the successful development of an injection practice pad that officially went on sale in Fall 2012.

Utilizing specialized silicon rubber technology, this injection practice pad is unlike any product Fusogom has offered before and lets anyone in the medical sciences practice on a structure that closely simulates human skin and veins. It is our sincere hope here at Takuetsu that this device will become widespread around the world, letting future nurses and doctors practice and improve their needle handling skills both quickly and safely.

KAREN offers five features:

1. Structure is very similar to human skin and veins, letting users practice in close to real-world conditions

2. Small size is convenient and easy to clean up and carry

3. Lets anyone safely improve needle handling skills in a short time

4. Develop a feel for and practice with different vein structures: thin, deep, narrow, and thick

5. Offered at an extremely economical price unmatched by competitors
