Primary outcomePrimary: First Attempt Success Rate of Cannulation — 54; 54; 18; 20 Participants — p=.851
Summary
1. This study will compare the first attempt success rate of cannulation in research participants randomized to using a new FDA approved AccuVein AV300 device for intravenous access with research participants randomized to standard cannulation methods.
2. This study will assess if insertion of intravenous cannula is faster when intravenous access is assisted by the AccuVein AV300 device as compared to the standard technique.
3. This study will assess if the number of skin punctures is fewer when intravenous access is assisted by the AccuVein AV300 device as compared to the standard technique.
