A hand-held robotic device for peripheral intravenous catheterization

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 2017
Intravenous catheterization is frequently required for numerous medical treatments. However, this process is characterized by a high failure rate, especially when performed on difficult patients such as newborns and infants. Very young patients have small veins, and that increases the chances of accidentally puncturing the catheterization needle ...

Failed attempts and improvement strategies in peripheral intravenous catheterization

Bio-Medical Materials and Engineering, 2013
BACKGROUND: Access to peripheral veins is necessary for sample collection, transfusion and infusion of fluids or medications. The peripheral intravenous catheterization (PIVC) procedure is the introduction of a short catheter into a peripheral vein and can be problematic, leading to multiple failed attempts.
