AccuVein's AccuVein AV300 vein illumination solution has been shown to improve peripheral vascular access for IV infusion by projecting a safe pattern of light on patient's skin that reveals the position of underlying veins.

According to the company, venipuncture is the most common invasive medical procedure worldwide with an estimated 2.7 million procedures conducted every day in the U. S. alone. Studies show that up to one third of these attempts to access a vein fail the first time, creating unnecessary patient discomfort as well as additional costs. AccuVein patient preference data shows the AV300 is desired by patients who revealed they would drive out of their way to facilities that use the device.

The AccuVein AV300 has received high praise from doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, patients and families. The technology has also received awards and widespread recognition from within the healthcare sector, including the 2011 Frost & Sullivan New Product Innovation Award.
