Remember your first attempt to do I.V injection onto alive patient? how hard for us to find the small vein just to proceed with the I.V. injection? I think, the image is still vivid in my mind. Some of us even trembling, went all over pale and the list is still goes on. Just remembering about the event had already gave us a lot of doubt to be a really good doctor. Simply saying "well that's nurse job" doesn't change the condition all the other way around, because the fact is; we still the doctors who afraid to do the IV.
Recently, there is a device called 'Veinlite' that can illuminate the vein.Well, this news might be quite a relieve for us 'the newbies' Now you can image those hard-to-find veins using the Veinlite LED or Veinlite EMS in patients where veins are not visible in the standard access areas. The Veinlite LED and Veinlite EMS can help find veins in several different areas of the body such as forearms, legs, thighs and scalp. You can also use the Veinlite LED as a regular transilluminator to shine light through the arms or legs for applications in pediatrics and neonatal care.
It just the matter of time before this product become popular. But at least for the time being, they already turn doctors' nightmare into sweet memories. Now every doctor can do I.V injection. Horray!
Check it for yourself!
