This study evaluated the effectiveness of VeinViewer for peripheral vascular accessing a pediatric hematology oncology clinic. After obtaining consent, 53 patients were randomly assigned to either the VeinViewer group (n = 27) or standard methods group (n = 26). Data on number of attempts, procedural time, access complications, and patient and nurse satisfaction were collected. Patients randomized to the VeinViewer group required significantly less time to access a vein as compared with the standard methods group ( P ≤ .05). Additionally, these patients rated nurses as having significantly more skill than nurses who did not use VeinViewer ( P ≤ .05) and assigned significantly higher scores for “overall experience”( P ≤ .05). Responses by nurses using VeinViewer overall saw the device in a positive light.
