Back: Improving Patient Satisfaction | Next: Impact On Patient Choice
2. What Does The Patient Prefer?
After seeing a demonstration of vein illumination with AccuVein, the patients were asked how the use of this kind of technology would impact their perception of future venipunctures. The overwhelming majority of patients expressed that they would be more comfortable with the venipuncture procedure on both themselves and on their loved ones if vein illumination was used. The results of this survey show that adding vein illumination has the potential to reduce patient anxiety and increase patient satisfaction.
