Veinspy™ is a portable vein finder for easy visualisation of veins in adult, pediatric, geriatric, obese and dark skin patients with difficult venous access.
It works on transverse illumination technology: light beams from a circular LED array penetrate the skin and act as a light source to achieve deep illumination of subcutaneous tissues.
The veins in the illuminated area absorb the light and become prominent as dark lines.
The Veinspy™ device consist of two sets of coloured LEDs: one set emits orange light optimal for superficial veins, another set emits red light to find deeper veins.
Advantages of the Veinspy™:
• reduces multiple needle prick and improves site selection for needle insertion
• no treatment delay due to difficult venous access
• reduces patient pain due to needle insertion
• increases patient comfort, avoids hematoma
How to use VeinSpy™
1) Wipe the area of the patient’s skin with alcohol swab
2) Insert VeinSpy™ into the disposable sleeve and switch ON
3) Move the VeinSpy™ across and forth to get a clear view of the specific vein
4) After visualization of vein move the device so that needle can be inserted easily
5) Gently press the VeinSpy™ on the vein, through the open end of VeinSpy™ insert needle into the vein
