Near Infrared Imaging careers

The Vein-Eye™ provides real-time video of sub-dermal veins located on various parts of the body, particularly the patient's arm or hand. The video displays a “runway” image of the patient’s vein, necessary for IV placements.

One in three vein puncture attempts result in failure in adults, and one in two attempts result in failure in pediatrics. That translates to a 50% failure for first-time punctures in pediatrics.

The failure rate of vein punctures ranges from 10% to 40% with critically ill patients, where time is of the essence and vein punctures are challenging.

When a healthcare professional inserts a needle for an IV, it should be accomplished in a timely and safe manner. While vein illumination is important in every needle insertion, it is paramount if the patient is obese, very young, aged or has dark skin.

The Vein-Eye™ is an FDA Class 1, 510K exempt medical device and has the CE Marking.

There are an estimated 2.5 million vein punctures every day just in the USA.
