About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using near-infrared imaging in pediatric vein cannulation is leading to higher success rate. The main question it aims to answer is:

is there higher success of first attempt in periferal vein cannulation? does it lower overall number of attempts to successful cannulation?

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Pediatric patients admitted to the inpatient section of the Department of Pediatric Anesthesiology and Resuscitation, Brno University Hospital

Pediatric patients in the anesthesia section of the Department of Pediatric Anesthesiology and Resuscitation, Brno University Hospital

Indicated insertion of peripheral venous access

Consent of the patient/legal representative to the study

Disqualifiers

Disagreement with the study

Not indicated insertion of peripheral venous access (according to clinical condition and decision of the attending physician)

A device for near-infrared imaging of the venous bed is not available

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Use of near-infrared imaging by VeinViewer Flex of periferal veins

    Device

    The projected near-infrared light is absorbed by the blood and reflected by surrounding tissue, captured, processed, and digitally projected in real time directly onto the skin surface. It provides an accurate, real-time image of the patient's blood pattern. Patented VeinViewer technology using AVIN™ (Active Vascular Imaging Navigation) allows the blood vessels to be seen down to a depth of 10 mm. With VeinViewer, physicians can see peripheral veins, bifurcations, and valves and assess venous filling/flushing in real time.
