  • How can we avoid patients' tension when using a vein finder device?

    1) Communication Script: Transforming “Unknown” into “Knowable”


    The patient’s tension mainly stems from the fear of unknown equipment and processes. Your words are the first line of defense against fear.

    1. Popularize the introduction of the equipment (avoid using medical terms) :

    Don’t say: “We are now using an ultrasound venous imager to find your blood vessels.”

    It can be said: “Let’s use this’ vascular fluoroscopy instrument ‘to take a look and see which of your blood vessels is the most obedient. We’ll choose that one.” Or “This is a ‘vascular navigation’ that can help us see more clearly and make the puncture go more smoothly.”

    Principle: Comparing high-tech devices to common concepts in life (such as perspective and navigation) can instantly bring people closer and eliminate the sense of mystery.

    2. Emphasize the benefits to patients (empathy and comfort) :

    Combining the pain point: “Your blood vessels instrument are relatively thin and deep. Let’s take a look at this. It can save you one injection and succeed in one attempt.” This sentence directly hits the patient’s most core fear.

    Expressing concern: “This instrument can help us find the best blood vessels and make your process a bit easier.”

    3. Real-time communication during the operation process (involve them) :

    Invitation to Watch: After scanning a clear blood vessel, turn the screen towards the patient: “Look, this is your blood vessel, displayed very clearly.” We’ll go in from here later.”

    Visual explanation: Pointing at the screen, he said, “Look, this one is thicker and straighter. The one beside it is thinner and has forks. We won’t choose it.” Doing so makes patients feel that everything is under control and a clear plan, rather than being operated blindly.

    Give a sense of control: Before wiping the coupling agent, you can say: “This gel is a bit cold. Just a reminder for you.” Let the patient have an expectation for the next step.



    2) Operational Behavior: Build trust with professionalism and thoughtfulness

    Your behavior conveys a sense of security more than your words.

    1. Stay confident and composed

    You yourself should demonstrate your proficiency and confidence in the equipment. Your composure will directly influence the patients. Even if you are a beginner, you should practice in advance to ensure that the operation process is smooth.

    2. Pay attention to patient comfort

    Position: Help patients adjust to the most comfortable posture to ensure that they do not become more tense due to an uncomfortable position during the operation.

    Keep warm: If the environment is cold, make sure to cover the patient. Coldness can cause blood vessels to constrict and increase tension.

    Preheating the coupling agent: If conditions permit, preheat the coupling agent in the palm of your hand before use to avoid the cold touch startling the patient.

    3. Gentle and precise operation

    Gentle pressing: When the probe touches the skin, be sure to do it gently to avoid forceful pressing that may cause discomfort and pressure to the patient.

    Reduce unnecessary scans: Scan with a purpose. Do not aimlessly swing the probe back and forth on the patient’s arm, as this will increase their unease.



    3)Scenario-based Response Strategies

    The strategy can be fine-tuned for different types of patients:

    1. For children:

    Gamification: It is called “The mini-game of finding blood vessels” or “Blood Vessel Monster Detector”.

    Distract him: Have him look at the images on the screen or chat with him and ask what he sees.

    Encouragement and Rewards: Provide positive encouragement and praise throughout the process.

    2. For patients who are extremely anxious or have experienced failure before:

    Take the initiative to admit and guarantee: “I understand you might be a little worried. It might not have gone smoothly last time.” This time we’ve used this “good helper”, and the situation will be different. Let’s get it done together.

    Give the option (if possible) : “Do you think we are looking at the left hand or the right hand?” Even a small choice can increase a patient’s sense of control.

  • What advantages does the New Generation Vein Finder have for patients?

    It greatly increases the success rate of venipuncture and reduces the pain of repeated needling


    Pain point: For infants and young children, obese patients, the elderly, those in shock or those who have been receiving intravenous fluids for a long time, their blood vessels are usually thin, deep, brittle or hard to reach. Nurses may need to make multiple attempts to successfully puncture.

    Advantages: Venous visualization devices can directly project real-time images of blood vessels onto the skin surface, like a “vascular map”, allowing medical staff to clearly see the location, direction and bifurcations of blood vessels. This achieves “precise puncture”, avoiding the need for multiple needle pricks caused by repeatedly searching for blood vessels, significantly reducing the patient’s pain and fear.



    2. Significantly improve the experience of patients, especially those in special groups

    Children and infants: Children have thin blood vessels and are very afraid of pain and being touched by strangers. Repeated injections can cause great psychological pressure to both children and parents. The vein finder can quickly locate blood vessels, shorten operation time and soothe the emotions of parents and children.

    Elderly patients: The blood vessels of the elderly have poor elasticity and are prone to rolling, and their skin is loose. Visualization technology can help nurses find the most ideal and solid puncture point, avoiding vascular rupture or bruising.

    Obese patients: Thick subcutaneous fat completely conceals the visual and tactile cues of blood vessels. The vein finder can “penetrate” the surface fat and reveal the deep blood vessels, solving the biggest problem.

    Patients with cancer or chronic diseases: Long-term chemotherapy or intravenous infusion can damage blood vessels, leading to their hardening and fragility. Using a vein finder can select relatively healthy vascular segments for puncture, protecting the patient’s precious vascular resources.



    3. Enhance safety and reduce the risk of complications

    Reduce vascular damage: Precise puncture reduces accidental injury to the vascular wall, thereby lowering the probability of post-puncture bruising, hematoma, and phlebitis.

    Avoid accidental arterial puncture: In some cases, arteries and veins are very close to each other. Clear vascular images can help medical staff distinguish between arteries and veins and prevent accidental puncture of arteries. It is especially an important safety aid for inexperienced operators.

    Protecting blood vessels: For patients who need long-term intravenous infusion, the puncture sites can be rotated in a planned manner to avoid excessive damage to the same blood vessel.



    4. Shorten the preparation time and improve the efficiency of medical treatment

    In busy emergency rooms, outpatient clinics or physical examination centers, it is crucial to quickly establish intravenous access. The use of a vein finder can quickly locate blood vessels, significantly reducing the preparation and search time before puncture, accelerating the overall diagnosis and treatment process, and reducing the time patients spend waiting and being exposed to a tense environment.



    5. Alleviate psychological anxiety and fear

    For many people, "getting an injection" itself is a source of fear. When patients see medical staff looking troubled because they can't find the blood vessels, it intensifies their sense of tension. When the device clearly displays the blood vessels and the medical staff confidently succeed in one attempt, this "visualization" technology will bring great psychological comfort and trust to the patients, thus increasing their cooperation.
