A-Lite Vein Locator

Problem

Multiple failed attempts to achieve venous access are costly and associated with an increased risk of complications compromising patient safety and care.

Solution

The A-Lite vein locator provides easy access to patients’ veins at 10 times less than the price of existing vein detection products on the market.

Results

Patients randomized to the A-Lite vein locator group required significantly less time to access a vein as compared with the standard method group.

Description

The A-Lite vein locator

The A-Lite vein locator provides easy access to patient veins and reduces the number of attempts and duration needed to obtain venous access in difficult cases.

More About Us

About 20% of patients experience mild to an intense fear of needles which stimulates the sympathetic nervous system and triggers vasoconstriction and vasovagal reactions, making an I.V. start more difficult in these patients.

“Nurse, I hope you’re good at this; they always have trouble with my veins.”
This is the last thing you want to hear when you approach a patient to insert a peripheral intravenous (IV) catheter, but it’s an all-too-common complaint.
