Near Infrared Trans-illumination Technology

Adjacent near infrared (NIR) LEDs situated in the flexible wings directly illuminate the patient's limb from both sides of the target area. This enables the NIR light to penetrate deep into the skin and subcutaneous tissue before being captured by the camera situated on the underside of the IV-eye and then processed to display a real-time image of the vascular structure.

Clinical Application

The IV-eye is a simple, portable, handheld imaging device. It does not replace standard visualization techniques, but can assist medical professionals trained in vascular access to locate, identify and assess peripheral veins for the purposes of cannulation and venipuncture.

Ideal for Challenging Cases

Dark skin patients
High BMI patients
Elderly patients
Dehydrated patients
Needle phobic patients
Agitated or stressed patients
"The IV-eye has given confidence to my nursing staff and has led to a higher first attempt success rate for IV starts. Being able to see the vein and potential bifurcations helps our nurses to choose the most ideal vein sooner, and has led to a higher satisfaction rate for the patients we serve. Easily became a staple for our home infusion nursing team!"
