What roles does the vein finder device play in emergency scenarios?

July 17 , 2025
1. Rapidly establish intravenous access
Question: During emergency treatment (such as massive hemorrhage, shock, or cardiac arrest), rapid intravenous infusion or medication is required. However, the patient may experience vascular collapse due to dehydration, low blood pressure, or obesity, making it difficult to locate.
Function
Real-time display of subcutaneous veins (such as veins on the back of the hand and in front of the elbow) through infrared imaging can shorten the puncture time (studies show that it can reduce the number of attempts by 30-50%).
Avoid vascular damage or complications (such as hematoma) caused by repeated punctures.
Typical scenario
Emergency room rescue of patients with hemorrhagic shock.
Establish venous access for the wounded on the battlefield or at disaster sites.

2. Dealing with special patient groups
Children/Infants
Newborns have thin and fragile blood vessels. Vein-Finder can precisely locate them, reducing the pain of puncture (pediatric studies show a 40% increase in success rate).
Obese patients
The fat layer covers the veins, making traditional palpation difficult. The equipment can penetrate 10-15mm and clearly visualize the tissue.
Elderly/patients with chronic diseases
Long-term intravenous infusion can lead to vascular hardening or atrophy, and the device helps identify available venous segments.

3. Applications in harsh environments
Low light/Night rescue
When there is a power outage, in the wild or during night rescue, the device comes with its own light source and does not rely on external lighting (such as in earthquake-stricken areas or military operations).
Polluting the environment
Reduce operation time and lower exposure risks (such as in scenarios of chemical pollution or infectious diseases).

4. Reduce medical errors and the risk of infection
Function
Reduce needle contamination or occupational exposure of medical staff (such as HIV and hepatitis B viruses) caused by failed puncture.
Avoid phlebitis caused by repeated punctures, especially for emergency patients who need long-term intravenous infusion (such as those with sepsis).
Data support
An ICU study showed that the catheter-related infection rate decreased by 22% after the use of Vene-Finder.

5. Adaptation to special first aid scenarios
Burn patients
Skin damage makes it impossible to use a tourniquet. The device locates the remaining veins through non-contact imaging.
Hypothermia
When blood vessels constrict, infrared technology can still identify deep veins.
Diabetic emergency

Ketoacidosis requires rapid fluid replacement, but the patient's vascular condition is poor. The equipment can increase the success rate of the first puncture.
