Neonatal Transilluminator

The Neonatal Transilluminator designed specifically with you and the neonate (or new-born) in mind.
Weve taken all the great features of the Venoscope II and put them into a transilluminator that

Finally, a neonatal transilluminator designed specifically with you and the neonate (or new-born) in
mind. Weve taken all the great features of the Venoscope II and put them into a transilluminator
that better serves the special needs of your neonatal patients. It still features the same powerful LED
lights, but is now smaller and more portable, making it even easier to maneuver around neonates.
The cool lights are strong enough to illuminate the hardest to find veins without the risk of burning the
baby. Creating happier babies makes happier nurses.
The Neonatal Transilluminator weighs just 6 ounces including the 3 AA batteries. It features a low
battery indicator light that alerts the nurse to change the batties.

Neonatal Transilluminator Instructions for use.

Apply a Tourniquet.
Dim the ambient room lighting.
Place the light in the palm of your hand and position the infants arm or foot over the light
holding it in place with your thumb.

Look on the top of the hand or foot to locate the dark lines which are veins.

Verify the dark line is a vein by depressing it and watch it refill.

Proceed with the venipuncture as usual.

For Arteries
Place the light on the top of the wrist area and look for the pulsing action on the other
side of the wrist.

Arteries do not absorb light so they will not present as a dark line.

Transilluminator | Vein Finder

The Vein Finder, allows a clinician to easily locate hard to find veins, making it faster and more efficient for health care providers and
clinicians to deliver a higher level of quality care.
The Vein Finder, allows a clinician to easily locate hard to find veins, making it faster and more efficient for health care providers and
clinicians to deliver a higher level of quality care. Fewer sticks means less time that a clinician needs to spend with each patient,
reduces the waste of materials such as needles, syringes, PICC and midline trays, and makes the procedure safer and more
comfortable for the patient.
Although in most cases a clinician can easily identify and access the veins of their patients, there are those patients with hard to find
veins, such as the obese, elderly and patients with dark skin. Data collected in hospital settings show that as a result of patients with
hard to find veins, multiple sticks occur on approximately twenty-five (25%) percent of patients. By using our transilluminator, a clinician
can reduce multiple sticks and increase the first stick success rate toward the 100% mark.
The use of our Vein Finder is a non-invasive procedure, and is done by placing the on the surface of the skin of a patient in such a way
that the high intensity light of is projected into the subcutaneous tissue of a patient. The light causes the veins of a patient to contrast
with the surrounding tissue, thereby making it easier to locate veins suitable for IV therapy and blood draws. This vein finder is an
industry leader in quality and reliability.

Transilluminator and Vein Finder Instructions for Use

Apply the tourniquet.

Dim the room lights (darker the better).
Place the Venoscope on the patients arm so that the light is projecting down into the
subcutaneous tissue.
Position the arms, two positions, so that the area between the arms is uniformly illuminated and
there is no dark area between them.
Slide the light over the patients arm looking for a dark line (a vein) to appear between and parallel
to both arms.
Depress both arms on either side of the dark line. If the dark line disappears and reappears when
pressure is released, you have located a patent vein.
Note bifurcations, length and size of the target vein. Deeper veins will appear as faint dark lines
and more superficial veins will be clearly defined within the subcutaneous tissue.

Reverse the light and attach it to the patients arm with the velstretch Velcro strap with the target
vein positioned between the arms. Raise the light and prep the area with alcohol and perform the stick so
that the needle enters the vein between the arms. You may be able to actually see the catheter as it moves
toward the vein.
Alternatively, simply mark the target vein with a surgical marking pen and turn the lights back on
to proceed with the venipuncture.
Complete the procedure as normal.
If you are using it on neonates you simply place one of the arms under the palm of the little hand
and the second arm under the forearm area. You can see the veins and arteries from the top. It can be used
for pneumothorax and hydrocephalus as well as scalp vein IV access.

ACCU Vein Viewing System

The AccuVein 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 9.7 ounces (275g), and easily converts
to hands-free with the use of optional wheeled or fixed stands. The medical grade design allows the device to be easily wiped
clean, bagged for use in isolation, and does not require calibration as it is permanently aligned. The easy to use AV400 can be
held in any direction above the vein being viewed. Universal and inverse modes make the AV400 useful on a variety of patient
types. With center line accuracy to the width of a human hair, the AV400 can detect veins up to 10 mm deep. More effective
venipuncture procedures with less patient discomfort result in higher patient satisfaction, making it clear why many facilities
have chosen to incorporate AccuVein into their standard of care.
