Paramedic in Birmingham, AL
A 911 call was received by our dispatch that a 33-week pregnant patient had been involved in a severe fall. The patient needed to be extricated from the van and was in shock. Upon exam of this very obese black patient (300 plus pounds), no veins could be palpated; I employed the AccuVein AV300 and was able to start an IV on the first attempt.”
Maryland Pediatric Critical Care Doctor
I used it yesterday to find a vein for PICC line insertion in a child with cancer and very poor peripheral venous access... ONE STICK!!! It's fantastic.”
Children’s Research Hospital – Anesthesia Department
Our Chief Anesthesiologist had a chubby baby and had to stick her everywhere over 5 times. He called for the AV300 and with the help of the device got it on the first stick. He was very impressed!”
We are often dealing with new babies with no visible veins. You can’t see anything – it’s like going in there blind – it’s impossible! That’s when we look for the device...where is it, we need it!”
Utah Hospital Nurse
We had a patient that was a difficult stick. The patient said, "I always have to be stuck 10 times to get an IV. Good luck." The nurse brought the AV300 in the room, used it to find a vein, and was able to establish IV access in one stick!”
ER Manager of Florida Hospital
An obese black male needed an IV and had already been stuck 4 or 5 times. No one could find his vein. Using the AV300, I got an IV the very first stick. In fact that patient had been waiting for a PICC line; I cancelled the order!”
Paramedic in Birminghan, AL
The cost savings using the AccuVein far exceed the cost of IO Drill needles ($100.00 each). If a service were to use the AccuVein only once a week, there would be a three-fold cost savings over the use of the IO Drill, and the risk avoidance of severe infection is a significant benefit as well.”
ER Manager of a Florida Hospital
It saved us quite a few calls for PICC lines – I’d say 3 or 4 fewer PICC lines in a month which translates to roughly $500 saved in a month...plus patients prefer peripheral IVs to PICC lines.”
The patient had been waiting for a PICC line. Using the AV300 I got the IV the very first stick. I cancelled the order for the PICC line.”
University Hospital Acute Care Lab – Technical Supervisor
Since we got the AV300 we haven't been asked once to escalate the procedure to the vascular access specialty area.”
South Carolina Hospital Lab Manager
The AccuVein AV300 has allowed us to reduce 2nd sticks by 50%!”
Boston Children's Hospital – Doctor of Emergency Medicine
I had a 200 lb 14 year old who needed to go to the operating room and was afraid of IVs and getting stuck. After several sticks without the device I used the AV300 and was able to identify a vein that I couldn't see or feel without the device. The family was incredibly grateful!”
Maryland Hospital – Pediatric Critical Care Doctor

The patient was very happy that she was not used as a pin cushion.”
South Carolina Hospital Lab Manager

If I can spend 5 minutes putting in a line rather than 30 minutes you’ve improved my day.”
University Hospital Acute Care Lab – Technical Supervisor

South Carolina Hospital Lab Manager
I don't endorse many products but the AV300 is easy to use and it works great.”
South Carolina Lab
We like it a lot because it doesn’t come into contact with the skin, it is easy to clean and easy to use!”
Missouri Blood Center - Donor Services
The AV300 is user-friendly and easy to carry.”
Phlebotomy Training Center
Students get such confidence using the AV300. They say “I think that’s the vein” and then they use the device to verify that, yes, that’s the vein.”
Paramedic in Birminghan, AL
In my 29 years of service as a Paramedic, this is one of the few times that I have used a tool that improves patient outcomes, reduces the risk of infection, and provides cost savings. The AV300 AccuVein is a true lifesaver.”
Anesthesiology Dept at a Research Hospital
It is a win-win for everybody!”
Everybody loves it!”
ER Manager of a Florida Hospital
We use it every chance we get!”

I am sold, I love this thing.”
I think it is going to change the way we do venipunctures.”

Other departments are jealous that we have the AV300.”

The patient was amazed and, quite frankly, so was I.”
