New AccuVein AV500 Vein Finder with stands

New AccuVein AV500 Vein Finder with stands digitally displays a map of the vasculature on the surface of the skin in real time, allowing clinicians to verify vein patency and avoid valves or bifurcations. It is handheld and lightweight, weighing only 283g, and easily converts to hands-free with the use of optional wheeled or fixed stands.

Clinical and Operational Challenges
Difficult venous access can lead to delays in treatment, increased risk of infections, catheter failure, and longer hospital stays. Escalation calls to other clinical staff often result in more invasive procedures.

AccuVein Technology
AccuVein uses near-infrared (NIR) light technology to enhance visualization of veins, including bifurcations and valves, which are often invisible to the naked eye. This technology aids in making more informed decisions about vein selection.
