Axillo-subclavian vein thrombosis occurs when a vein in the armpit (axilla) or at the front of the shoulder (subclavian vein) is pressured by the collarbone (clavicle), the first rib, or the surrounding muscle. It is classified as a kind of thoracic outlet syndrome.
When a vein is repeatedly pressed, it becomes irritated and fibrous tissue forms. This tissue causes the vein to constrict and limit blood flow, resulting in blood clot development. Axillo-subclavian vein thrombosis can cause arm soreness and weariness if left untreated.
The following are often recorded as Axillo-subclavian vein thrombosis symptoms:
Advanced vein finding equipment should be used on all patients with suspected vein thrombosis. These devices can accurately locate a vein and detect venous reflux and obstruction. It’s worth mentioning, though, that not all vein-finding machines can do such a delicate job.
The usage of Portable Vein Detector SIFVEIN-5.2 would make it easier for the phlebotomist to detect the vein, reducing the risk of a pre-analytical error in the specimen collection and exacerbating the patient’s pain.
Further, Because of their weakening skin, blood drawing may be difficult for the elderly. Their skin becomes thinner, dryer, and more delicate. Furthermore, as the blood vessels become more sensitive, a venipuncture failure could easily result in the bursting of these tiny blood vessels. As a result, bruising, swelling, and even bleeding beneath the skin may develop, which vein thrombosis patients fear the most.
The Portable Vein Detector SIFVEIN-5.2 was created for these specific situations where identifying a vein is challenging or requires extra concentration and care. The SIFVEIN-5.2 allows veins to be seen clearly at a depth of 10 mm beneath the skin, regardless of the patient’s age, skin color, or obesity level.
The device also has a depth recognition mode that improves vein depth judgment, as well as three colors (red, green, and white) that can be switched at any time depending on the light in the room and the skin tone of the patient, making the vein more visible, easier to access, and increasing clinical accuracy.
As a consequence, any conceivable failure diagnosis, as well as the fear, stress, and misery experienced by vein thrombosis patients, are ruled out.
In conclusion, the FDA Portable Vein Finder SIFVEIN-5.2 has been shown to be effective during difficult IV operations for vein thrombosis. In a nutshell, it should be the first choice for physicians, nurses, and Phlebitis patients who seek a precise diagnosis, successful treatment, and a quick recovery.
