Up to 90% of hospitalised patients require IV therapy, making difficult venous access a common and costly challenge that impacts patient care and hospital operations. In fast-paced clinical environments, failed IV attempts can trigger a cascade of issues—delayed treatments, escalation calls, invasive procedures, increased infection risk, catheter failure, and extended hospital stays.
AccuVein AV500, powered by advanced near-infrared (NIR) vein visualisation technology, offers a proven, non-invasive solution that enhances peripheral IV catheter (PIVC) assessment, improves first-stick success rates, reduces complications, and supports clinical efficiency. Discover how the AccuVein Visualisation Device helps healthcare professionals overcome venous access challenges with confidence—learn more about its innovative features and benefits today.
Key Benefits of AV500 Vein Visualisation Finder
Reduced Escalation Calls
When AccuVein Visualisation Device was implemented across various nursing units, (adult medicine/surgery, pediatric, intermediate care), escalation calls decreased by 45%. This change not only saved valuable staff time, it also appeared to increase staff’s confidence.
Preserve Vein Health
AccuVein-guided assessment supports the most advanced approach to vein preservation, as stated to the INS 2021 Standards: “It is important that vascular visualisation technology is employed to increase insertion success of the most appropriate, least invasive vascular access device (VAD), minimising the need to escalate to an unnecessary, more invasive device and to reduce insertion-related complications.
Improved Patient Experiences
The number one concern of patients is pain associated with how many times they will be stuck with a needle. AccuVein-guided procedures resulted in a 39% reduction in pain and a 45% reduction in patient stress. Increasingly, patients are asking hospital staff to employ vein visualisation technology to reduce their anxiety and pain.
