India’s 1st opto- semiconductor chips manufacturer launches a medical device for precise vein detection specially designed for the healthcare industry
Polymatech Electronics, at the forefront of semiconductor chip innovation in India, unveils its groundbreaking medical device - the Vein Detection Light. This cutting-edge technology promises to revolutionise the healthcare industry, offering a solution to a pervasive problem of accurate vein detection in medical procedures worldwide. The device features high-definition vein detection, delivering real-time full high-definition (FHD) visualisation (1920 X 1080) for unmatched clarity in identifying subdermal veins. Weighing a mere five (5) lbs. and meticulously designed for mobility, the Vein Detection Light provides healthcare professionals with unparalleled convenience across various medical settings.
According to industry estimates, there are around 174 million veni- puncture failures worldwide every year, with a failure rate of one in five attempts in adults and one in three attempts in paediatrics. Moreover, patient movement during infusion poses the risk of unintended needle punctures, leading to potential complications such as infiltration or extravasation, where the administered medicine leaks from the vein into the surrounding tissue.
Polymatech's Vein Detection Light addresses the critical need for accurate vein detection, especially in challenging cases where time is of the essence. With a failure rate of vein punctures ranging from 10 percent to 40 percent in critically ill patients, the Vein Detection Light becomes an indispensable tool in healthcare settings. Meticulously crafted for versatile application, this innovative product can find veins in every patient, regardless of weight, body mass, skin color, age, health condition, or excessive hair. Its efficacy is particularly pronounced in the infusion of new born babies and the elderly.
Commenting on the launch of this cutting-edge medical device, Eswara Rao Nandam, Founder of Polymatech Electronics, said, "Polymatech Electronics takes pride in presenting the Vein Detection Light, a testament to our commitment to innovation in semiconductor technology. According to the National Library of Medicine, 67% of IV infusions face failure, necessitating the movement of the catheter or IV bag. This revolutionary medical device underscores our dedication to addressing such critical healthcare needs, providing professionals with a tool that ensures precision and efficiency in vein detection. "
The Vein Detection Light is tailored for the IV Hydration, home healthcare, home infusion, and ambulance markets. It stands out as the sole truly portable device offering Full HD images of subdermal veins across diverse conditions, including obesity, dark skin, excessive body hair, critical illness, old age, newborns, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Positioned to tackle industry challenges, it combines affordability, portability, and versatility, displaying veins at various depths, penetrating extreme fat and hair, and detecting infiltration and extravasation of medicine into the tissue. This device ensures convenience for medical professionals and distinguishes itself with advanced features like accurate depth recognition.
With this new innovation, Polymatech Electronics aims to transform the landscape of medical procedures with its innovative products, aligning with the company's commitment to delivering high-quality semiconductor solutions.
