Skill Practice

• Table lead will guide you through process• Two participants at a time will insert

sensors, apply overtape, and attach MiniLink, using model abdomen.

• Do NOT insert sensors into yourself, each other, or other living beings

• When you have completed your practice, remove your sensors from models and place into sharps container.

• The next pair of participants will then insert sensors.
