Veinlite® is a Reliable Vein Light for Clinical Use
Blood draws are routine in the dental clinic. Blood is drawn for laboratory testing as well as for use as a hydrating material or even for processing in a PRF centrifuge. One of the biggest challenges facing clinicians during the process is accurately finding a vein for a fast and convenient blood draw that is comfortable for the patient. Veinlite® is a solution that makes it simple to locate a viable vein chairside.
Locating a Vein is Simple with a Vein Light
It doesn’t have to be difficult to find a patient’s vein. With the help of a vein light like the Veinlite EMS PRO®, clinicians can perform safer and faster procedures. The Veinlite EMS PRO® is an affordable, reliable, and compact vein light and is the leading solution for clinicians.
Product features include:
- Bright white exam light.
- 24 long-lasting LEDs in red, orange, and white.
- Suited to clinical use.
- Lightweight and compact for ergonomic use.
- Supports safe and efficient one-stick vein access.
While blood draws are common in dental clinics, many clinicians have difficulty quickly and efficiently locating a vein. With a vein light available in the clinical inventory, it’s possible to locate a vein quickly, improving the surgical process, reducing fatigue for the clinician, and improving the patient experience.
Every aspect of a dental procedure reflects on the reputation and success of a clinic. A vein light like the Veinlite EMS PRO® can help clinicians to improve their reputations within their communities.
Clinical Trials Prove Veinlights are Highly Effective
Veinlights aren’t novel in the healthcare industry. However, the Veinlite EMS PRO® has special features that allow it to stand out in the marketplace.
The Veinlite EMS PRO® was designed to be used as a veinlight on the road. It has high popularity with firefighters, EMTs, paramedics, and police officers. Its light weight (59 grams) makes it ideal for field use. By extension, the small size, easy handling, and weight make it ideal for dental clinicians.
A veinlight that is small and easy to use means that fatigue won’t be a problem. Clinicians don’t have to fumble with an unwieldy unit. Because it’s compact, the Veinlite EMS PRO® veinlight can be held and applied to a patient’s forearm while the clinician inserts a syringe needle and draws blood. Veins can be located in seconds, not minutes. There are fewer failures, meaning fewer sticks with the needle. In most cases, clinicians will successfully stick the vein the first time.
In trials, the Veinlite EMS PRO® provides a 93% first-attempt success rate. This compares favorably to just 72% for standard clinical procedures without a veinlight, and 45% when using outdated infrared locators.
How the Veinlite® Works
The procedure for operating a Veinlite® is simple. This is a carryover from its original design specification. Healthcare professionals on the road have no time to waste when locating a vein in an emergency. Clinicians, despite not typically dealing with the same by-the-minute decisions and pressure, can enjoy the same fast response and intuitive use of a Veinlite®
- Simply turn on the Veinlite® device and place it against the skin, aligned to the vein direction. Most blood draws in the dental office will be at the forearm, but the Veinlite® can be used for any accessible vein in the body. Veins will appear as dark lines under the Veinlite®.
- When a suitable vein is located, the device can be turned parallel to the vein.
- Pressure is applied to the device, and it is pushed back slightly to stretch the skin. This ensures a good point of entry for the needle.
- A sterilized needle is inserted as the final step. Blood can be drawn for testing or centrifuge preparation.
The Veinlite EMS PRO® uses sterile disposable covers to prevent cross-contamination between patients.
More than Just Blood Draws: A Vein Light Can Be Used to Administer Medication
Although we’ve focused on drawing blood for hydrating a grafting material or processing in a centrifuge, the Veinlite® can also be used for the administration of medication.
Dental surgeons and anesthesiologists can use a vein light for:
- Administering pain relief in IV form. The vein light will make it easy to find a vein the first time.
- Administering IV anesthesia.
- Administering an IV sedative for more comfortable dentistry procedures.
