The
new 21cVA technique improves the vein access procedure for
you, your patient, and your institution, whether you are . . .
♦ a Nurse or Paramedic starting an IV,
♦ an X-Ray Tech injecting contrast,
♦ a Phlebotomist
/ MLT / MA / Paramedic / Nurse drawing blood,
♦ a Blood Donation Tech collecting cells
or plasma,
♦ a Physician ordering diagnostics and treatments,or
♦ an Administrator or Manager responsible for cost containment,
risk management, and patient satisfaction.
The
tools used to access veins have evolved over time, but the
technique has not. The healthcare industry's use of 19th Century
technique keeps the
whole process where it's at. And, where's
that?
♦ Failure to access the vein (a recent
study identified this as
the #1 laboratory problem).
♦ Hemolysis, the result of poor technique.
♦ Healthcare
Acquired Infections, the 8th leading cause of
death in the United
States.
♦ Vein access injuries - vein rupture upon venipuncture,
IV infiltrations, bruising, and phlebitis.
♦ Laboratory specimens of poor quality
and insufficient quantity.
♦ Delays in the delivery of diagnostics and therapies.
♦ Very poor patient satisfaction.
♦ Increased costs: supplies, personnel
time, increased length
of stays, and liabiity.
It's time for the vein access procedure
to come into the 21st Century,
and Vein Access Technologies has taken that evolutionary
step
using evidence-based science to raise the standards of care in vein
access. It's
time for the new 21cVA technique - it works.
