Impact of VeinViewer® Vision to Guide Peripheral Venipuncture in Geriatrics
- Conditions
- VenipunctureGeriatric
- Interventions
- Biological: Venous puncture in elderly patients
- Registration Number
- NCT03139045
- Lead Sponsor
- Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens
- Brief Summary
Peripheral venipuncture is a common procedure in geriatrics. This procedure due to altered cutaneous alteration and venous capital associated with age poses problems of comfort and quality of life of elderly patients hospitalized. There is little data from the literature that highlights the difficulties of venipuncture in the context of old age. New venous visualization technologies by infrared spectroscopy (NIR) such as VeinViewer® Vision (VVV) have been developed to guide the placement of a peripheral venous (VVP) or venipuncture (PV) route.
