The Vein-Eye CARRY only weighs less than 10 lbs. and can be carried into the home,
throughout the hospital or nursing home, used in an ambulance and carried into
remote villages and towns.
There are 40M vein punctures everyday worldwide and 20% fail on the 1
st
attempt.
Care delays occur in approximately 25% of all patients regardless of care setting due
to the inability to establish IV access.
Drawing blood or placing an IV is exceedingly difficult if the patient has diarrhea, is
very young, is very old, or the veins have collapsed due to dehydration.
Drawing blood or placing an IV can be dangerous to both the patient and healthcare
practitioner if the patient has the Coronavirus, Ebola, AIDS, SARS, Measles, Chicken
Pox or Tuberculosis.
The failure rate of puncturing a vein is 10% to 40% when resuscitating a critically ill
patient, where time is of the essence and vein punctures are challenging.
• Failure to puncture the vein causes increased stress and pain to the patient,
the healthcare worker and to the patient’s family.
• One in five attempts result in failure in adults, and one in three attempts
result in failure in pediatrics.
• The average time requirement for peripheral IV cannulation is reported at 2.5
to 13 minutes, with difficult IV access requiring as much as 30 minutes.
• If intravenous therapy does not begin promptly, both patients and healthcare
practitioners endure tremendous stress with repeated missed attempts.
• Below is an image of a three-year old child with a history of missed vein
punctures due to illnesses.
