New VeinViewer® Technology Improving Patient Care and Vascular Access Procedures
Recently adopted VeinViewer®, a medical device that uses harmless near-infrared light and other technologies to project a real-time digital vein image of subcutaneous vasculature and blood patterns directly on the skin, regardless of skin color or patient type.Staff can utilize the device pre-, during-, and post-access, meaning our patients can expect a better experience throughout the entire vascular access procedure.
Although performed frequently, venipuncture is commonly thought of as one of the most painful and anxiety-provoking invasive procedures performed by clinicians.
Experts estimate that more than 1 billion venipunctures are performed annually; however, many first attempts can prove unsuccessful. VeinViewer has been shown to improve IV first-stick success by up to 100 percent, decrease medically unnecessary PICC lines by greater than 30 percent and increase patient satisfaction by 100 percent.
It not only benefits the practice but also provides a better patient experience and improved patient safety
Implementing new practices and technology that improves patient safety is a key focus. The Infusion Nurses Society released a pivotal position paper, "Recommendations for Improving Safety Practices With Short Peripheral Catheters" which recommends the use of vein visualization technology during venous access procedures.The authors utilized three VeinViewer clinical studies as supporting evidence for the paper and recognized the importance of pre-insertion, insertion and post-insertion practices for improving safety, all of which are benefits VeinViewer provides.
"Through six VeinViewer generations, we at Christie have seen the device change the level of patient care around the world" said Chris Schnee, general manager for Christie Medical Holdings, maker of VeinViewer.
Aesthetics
The vascular image projected by VeinViewer is becoming rapidly adopted by aesthetics physicians to help improve their success rates in sclerotherapy and injection procedures.
Sclerotherapy
Identification of the deeper feeder vein has proven a very effective means of treating spider telangiectasia. VeinViewer sees peripheral veins up to 10mm deep and blood patterns up to 15 mm deep and can be used with both laser and non-laser treatment techniques. Our exclusive vascular imaging technology can potentially improve procedure success and avoid additional treatments.
VeinViewer® benefits include:
- Location of deeper reticular veins for better target mapping.
- Real time visualization; watch fluids clear the blood column.
- The potential to reduce costs and improve patient throughput.
- Patient consultation and education on the procedure, setting expectations of success; avoiding unneeded re-do of procedures.
- Expanded marketing opportunities due to increased patient satisfaction and word-of-mouth referrals.
"We have been using our VeinViewer for about 18 months and love it. We use it predominantly for reticular veins and identifying the veins that feed the large clusters of spider telangiectasia. It is also very helpful for the lateral sub-dermal venous plexus. Most importantly, the patients absolutely love the technology, and I feel that it legitimizes us as vein specialists"
- William Schuh, MD, Vein Care Institute, Denver, CO
Cosmetic injections
Accidentally hitting a vein during injection of fillers and other cosmetic facial treatments can cause painful unattractive bruising.
- Locate and avoid veins on the face, which are commonly clustered around the eyes.
- Promote your dedication to the comfort of your patients through utilization of the latest technology.

"Thank you so much for this information.
I agree completely and are as disappointed in the medical field as Dr Shallenberger. Brett’s oncologist said the same thing. I was furious and insisted that he continue his vit’s. If he had not I don’t believe he would be in “as good” state as what he was.
That Ozone treatment is phenomenal – absolutely mind blowing. You treated him on Thursday – by Sunday his hair had started growing back. He has eyebrows and a beard already. It is truly amazing.
Please can we make another appointment for this week – perhaps Thursday again?" -
"Good news, my weight this morning was 99.7 – first time in years it is below 100kg! I cannot thank you enough – I feel wonderful."

"It made a vast difference when I was again on full strength with everything.Have a great day and know that you still have my gratitude for changing my life around!"

"Good morning, Dr. H,
Would it be purely in my head that I'm seeing/feeling results of the LE products I'm on? I've created a spreadsheet for monitoring my meals and daily "results". I started the programme in earnest on Saturday the 10th. So far, the first things I've noticed are:
1.My skin is beautiful - like silk!
2.My bowel movements are far more regular, soft and quite volumeous.
3.I don't have any "down" moments and feel very relaxed, but in control.
4.My moment-by-moment memory is greatly improved (I no longer have to THINK what I had for breakfast).
The other thing is that find I'm actually remembering why I got up to go to my bedroom, for example! That's amazing.
I hope this isn't all in my mind (sort of "placebo effect" ??)" -
"Hi Dr Haffejie,
I am looking and feeling terrific. No more sugar in tea or coffee. Very little coffee, actually - one cup at 4pm in the afternoon with one sachet of Xylitol. My abdomen is flattening and it's become soft, so I'm doing some exercise to tighten it up so that I don't go too flabby! (Not that anyone would notice, at my age!) I've had two strangers approach me while shopping and ask me what I use on my skin. Good grief, it really MUST show! How wonderful! My waistline is slimming down, from 89cm to 87 at the moment. I haven't lost weight - it just seems to have sort of moved around into the right places. How strange. I'm back to sleeping a solid 7 hours without waking (unless my dog suddenly barks and leaps out of the bed, sending me levitating with my heart pounding!) I am being SO good with the diet, and SO diligent about what I put in my mouth.
I think you're a star - and you probably think I'm mad, but that's okay!
Thanks for all you're doing for me." -
"Good morning Doctor H! I want to let you know that Carl Louis is definitely better. The meds and gluten free approach is working for him - and for me. I do have better and more sustainable energy. Thank you so much!"

"Dr H I feel FANTASTIC! I cannot remember when last i experienced this feeling of profound wellness. Thank you for this gift... W"
