The Use of Vein Finder in Performing Vein Sclerosis in Lower Limbs

Vein sclerosis, also known as venous insufficiency, has been linked to Multiple Sclerosis ( MS). Backflow of blood within veins caused by defective valves is referred to as venous insufficiency.

Indeed, studies have revealed that the veins in the lower limbs are compromised in persons with varicose veins. However, in MS patients, the cerebral veins may be inadequate. Chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency refers to impaired venous drainage from the central nervous system.

A professional vein finder should be used to accurately detect and diagnose the affected weak veins, ensuring a correct diagnosis and putting a stop to unsuccessful needle insertion attempts in performing sclerosis veins in the lower limbs.

Actually, vascular surgeons and Phlebotomists tend to use a vein finder with high depth that’s able to detect small veins. For this reason our medical technical team usually strongly recommends either SIFVEIN-5.2 or SIFVEIN-7.2 to be used in assisting such a procedure.

In the one hand, SIFVEIN-5.2 emits non-invasive infrared light with various wavelengths, allowing for variable projection depth based on vein conditions.

The Vein Finder SIFVEIN-5.2 features a distinct wavelength to allow oxyhemoglobin in surrounding tissues and veins to absorb light. The data is filtered to display veins on the screen after photoelectric conversion and image processing. It’s used to locate veins quickly.

As for the SIFVEIN-7.2, it has a good adjustable brightness that helps the doctors customizing the image brightness based on the environment light. Most importantly, It has the fine mode feature which is a stronger enhancement mode to help to find the smaller and deeper veins.

The Vein Depth Recognition option in both vein viewers improves vein depth projection. As a result, the initial venipuncture success rate might be significantly increased.

To sum up, using a vein finder would make the venipuncture procedure much easier. In other words, because the diagnosis is precise enough from the outset, phlebotomists, nurses, and doctors can assist guarantee that the treatment process goes well.
