Mobile vein assessment across departments and care areas
-
Choosing a vein is only part of the decision. Choosing the appropriate catheter size for that vein matters, too.
CathCompass™ uses near-infrared technology with a color-coded catheter sizing guide. Clinicians can compare the selected vein to standard catheter gauges to make more informed decisions about the catheter-to-vein ratio.
CathCompass™ helps clinicians:
Evaluate the vessel before choosing a catheter
Better align catheter selection with vein size
Support PIVC decisions in difficult-access patients
Build confidence in catheter-to-vein ratio evaluation
Add a visual check to peripheral IV planning
When the correct catheter size is chosen, first-stick success increases to 92%.*

Pre-Access
Reveal more potential access sites, support vein selection with real-time visualization, and help assess difficult venous access.
During Access
Support an eyes-on-patient technique, add catheter sizing guidance with CathCompass™, and help clinicians stay focused on placement.
Post-Access
Assess IV patency through fluid flushing visualization, detect hematoma formation as it develops, and support documentation with image capture.
Supporting Clinical Efficiency
VeinViewer® is designed to support a wide range of vascular access needs, including difficult venous access cases that can impact workflow, patient experience, compliance, and resource utilization.
Repeat attempts can add time and frustration for both clinicians and patients. Better peripheral vein assessment can support more efficient access decisions, help reduce repeat attempts, and support appropriate escalation when needed.
VeinViewer® Vision2 and VeinViewer® Flex support clinical efficiency by helping facilities:
Reduce repeat attempts
Improve confidence in difficult-access cases
Support lab, outpatient, inpatient, and emergency response workflows
Support more informed PIV catheter selections with CathCompass™
Improve the patient experience during blood draws and IV starts
Support earlier peripheral assessment before escalation
Meet compliance recommendations from organizations like the Infusion Nursing Society

Compliance and Patient Satisfaction: Two Priorities for Government Facilities
Government and public healthcare facilities are held to some of the highest standards for compliance, safety, and patient experience. VeinViewer® is designed to support both.
Meet Compliance Standards
The Infusion Nursing Society recommends the use of vein visualization technology “as a routine strategy for difficult or poor venous access,” noting that “visualization technology can improve success rates, decrease unsuccessful insertion attempts, and improve patient satisfaction.” VeinViewer® helps facilities align daily practice with these recommendations and supports broader patient safety and compliance initiatives.
Improve Patient Satisfaction
Difficult Venous Access (DVA) is a common problem affecting patients, clinicians, and a facility’s bottom line. VeinViewer® helps alleviate DVA by allowing clinicians to clearly see more venipuncture sites, displaying peripheral veins up to 10mm deep as well as problematic valves and bifurcations. Seeing more veins allows for more venous access options, empowering clinicians to make the best choice for insertion to avoid potential complications that affect patient comfort and hospital procedure expenses.
For veterans, military families, and the public populations government facilities serve, fewer failed attempts and a smoother visit can make a meaningful difference in how care is experienced and remembered.
Beyond Purchase Price: Understanding Total Cost of Ownership
Government procurement and tender processes often place heavy emphasis on acquisition cost. But the purchase price is only one part of the equation — the real value of a vascular access solution is measured over its full lifecycle.
When evaluating VeinViewer® against acquisition cost alone, consider the total cost of ownership:
Clinical Outcomes — Improved first-stick success and fewer repeat attempts can reduce complications, wasted supplies, and clinician time per patient.
Product Lifespan & Reliability — VeinViewer® Flex is military-grade drop-tested to IEC/UL 60601-1 standards and assembled in the U.S.A., built to perform reliably over years of daily use in demanding clinical and field environments.
Service & Support — Ongoing manufacturer support, training, and in-service education help facilities standardize technique, onboard new staff, and protect their investment over time.
Long-Term Return on Investment — Fewer failed attempts, reduced escalation to more invasive access methods, and improved patient throughput compound into meaningful cost savings over the life of the device.
A lower purchase price today doesn’t always mean lower costs tomorrow. VeinViewer® is built to deliver value across its full lifecycle, not just at the point of sale.
