Venous scanner

The vascular scanner helps the doctor observe the structure of the vein and identify the best puncture position if an injection, catheter or IV is needed. The vein finder increases the chances of success the first time, which saves the patient from possible pain.

The vein scanner has an ergonomic design, which makes it lightweight and portable, easy to use anywhere. The infrared source is harmless to the human body. The device is used in pediatrics, plastic surgery, oncology, radiology, laboratory, emergency care, outpatient, vascular surgery.

How does a vein scanner work

The vein scanner operates on the principle of using innovative technology. High-frequency light provides a projection of the image of the underlying vascular structure on the skin surface in real time. This device helps health care workers accurately locate veins, facilitating procedures such as venipuncture, intravenous administration and blood sampling.

Infrared light reacts with hemoglobin to “capture” the vascular pattern beneath the skin. The resulting image is then processed and projected onto the skin, allowing doctors to clearly visualize veins and make informed decisions.

The technology was first introduced for mass healthcare use in the early 2000s. Since then, it has become widely used. Vein scanners are categorized as medical devices and are often referred to as infrared vein finders.

Scope

Various healthcare professionals, including nurses, phlebotomists, anesthesiologists, physician assistants, and plastic surgeons, use the vein finder in their practice. It is particularly useful in procedures involving venipuncture, intravenous catheterization, blood transfusions, and blood draws. The gadget improves accuracy, minimizes discomfort, and reduces the risk of complications associated with vein access.

Key Clinical Benefits:

• Using the device increases the chances of successful vein access on the first attempt, reducing patient discomfort and the need for multiple needle insertions.
• By providing faster and more accurate vein visualization, the scanner helps improve workflow efficiency, reducing procedure time and associated costs.
• Clinical use of the device reduces the risk of complications such as hematoma formation by allowing healthcare providers to identify the most appropriate veins for cannulation.

Clinical Applications

• The vein scanner helps find appropriate veins for blood collection, making the process more efficient and reducing patient discomfort.
• Vein viewing technology helps healthcare providers identify optimal veins for successful and accurate IV insertion, reducing the number of attempts and minimizing patient discomfort.
• Accurate vein visualization helps healthcare providers select appropriate veins for blood transfusion, ensuring accurate delivery and reducing the risk of complications.
• The device helps identify appropriate veins for IV drug administration, ensuring proper placement and minimizing the risk of extravasation.
• Patients undergoing chemotherapy often have compromised veins. The scanner helps locate the vessel, reducing the problems associated with repeated needle insertion.
• The device is especially useful in pediatric settings, where vein localization can be more challenging due to smaller vessels. It helps reduce stress and discomfort in young patients during venous procedures.
• Older patients often have fragile or difficult to access veins. The vein scanner allows for clear visualization of the vessel, increasing the success rate of procedures such as venipuncture and intravenous catheter insertion.
• The equipment helps identify suitable veins for patients undergoing dialysis, ensuring optimal access for hemodialysis or vascular access procedures.
• During preoperative procedures, the scanner helps anesthesiologists find suitable veins for anesthesia administration, improving efficiency and patient comfort.
• In emergency situations, rapid and accurate vein identification is critical for the timely administration of drugs or fluids in emergency medicine.
