Setup
The AV500 needs to be placed in the charging cradle before
first use. AccuVein recommends fully charging the AV500 at
that time. Connect the charging cradle to the power supply.
The AV500 comes with power supply adaptors to ensure outlet
compatibility. If necessary, secure a different power adaptor
to the power supply before plugging it into an outlet. The
AV500 is compatible with all voltages from 100 – 240VAC.
Remove the plastic protective cover from the AV500 display
screen before use.
Intended Use
The AccuVein AV500 is a portable, hand-held instrument
that helps medical professionals to locate certain superficial
veins. The AV500 is intended to be used as a supplement
to appropriate medical training and experience. The AV500
should not be used as the sole method for locating veins,
and should be used only by a qualified medical professional,
who should do so either prior to palpation to help identify
the location of a vein, or afterwards to confirm or refute the
perceived location of a vein. When using the AV500, medical
practitioners should always follow the appropriate medical
protocols and practices as required by their medical facility,
as well as exercise sound medical judgment.
When used properly, the AV500 enables users to locate certain
superficial veins in connection with medical procedures, such
as venipuncture.
The AV500 can be used whenever the determination of vein
location is appropriate such as hospitals and clinics.
Basic use and operation
Product Description
The AV500 operates by using infrared light to detect veins
beneath the skin, then projecting the position of the veins
on the skin surface directly above the veins. Qualified medi-
cal personnel can observe the vasculature as displayed to
assist them in finding a vein of the right size and position
for venipuncture and other medical procedures requiring
the location of superficial veins. No training is required to
operate the AV500.
The AV500 only shows superficial vasculature. The maximum
depth that veins are displayed varies by patient. In addition,
some patients' veins or a portion of their veins might not be
displayed well or at all. Causes for less than optimal or lack
of vein display include, but are not limited to, vein depth,
skin conditions (e.g., eczema, tattoos), hair, scarring or other
highly contoured skin surface, and adipose (fatty) tissue.
When held directly overhead, the AV500 accurately locates
the center of a vein. Increasing the displacement from directly
overhead results in an offset in the displayed vein position.
Width of displayed vein may differ from the actual width
depending on patient to patient differences and vein width.
The center line of the vein is accurate when the device is
being used correctly and should always be used as the target
when performing venipuncture or other medical procedures.
The AV500 requires no routine or preventative maintenance.
The AV500 is portable, internally powered by battery and
approved for continuous operation. The AV500 is considered
a Type B applied part.
The technology in the AV500 is patented. Visit www.accuvein.com
