FOR PEDIATRICS

The Veinlite PEDI2 is a clinically proven pediatric vein finder that simplifies and improves venous access in children ages 0-17. PEDI2 uses side transillumination to make the veins more visible and accessible. It enables healthcare providers to quickly and accurately locate suitable veins for IV access in pediatric patients. Doing so helps reduce time, frustration, and discomfort associated with traditional techniques for finding small or faint veins.

Healthcare professionals can use Veinlite PEDI2 to achieve 100% vein access success in children and eliminate multiple failed IV attempts. In clinical trials, the first attempt success rate was significantly higher when using Veinlite than the Standard of Care (93% vs 72%). Near-infrared light (NIR) devices only had a 45% success rate.

PEDI2 meets INS & CDC Guidelines for Infection Control through the use of disposable plastic covers to prevent patient-to-provider and patient-to-patient contamination.

Veinlite eases the pain of diabetes management

I have been using your Pediatric Veinlite for about 2 years now because it has dramatically and entirely made the many woes of diabetes care so much better. This product has made the constant ache in my heart much more bearable as we trudge through countless insulin pump and CGM (constant glucose monitor) changes on my son. Thank you.

I would love to share the details of why this works so well for us and perhaps how this could be a possible secondary selling feature for your company. I would say no strings attached, but I hope that sharing this with your company may spread awareness about the (many) needs of the Diabetic community and perhaps bring your useful product into the world of others who could benefit from it.

The way we use the Veinlite PEDI2 is certainly not the way your product is intended to be used, as we use it to AVOID veins. You see, neither the insulin pump nor CGM can be inserted into a vein. Insulin must be delivered into fatty tissue. If a vein is hit upon inserting either product, aside from causing the person pain and having to go through the whole prepping process again, the product must be removed, rendering it useless and invalid.

Both insulin pumps and CGMs have a cannula that inserts itself once and only once. By being able to avoid my son’s veins, we have mercifully and significantly reduced the pain of inserting the cannulas of our diabetes products into his skin. Equally important is not wasting a pod or CGM because, unfortunately, cost is always on the mind of a family dealing with diabetes care. We are often up against insurance that will only cover the exact number of insulin pumps or CGMs to the day, which leaves no room for error.

When a pod is wasted because it hits a vein, this leads to hours on the phone to replace the wasted pod, disruption in my son's life and care, and loss of work hours as the parent dealing with the issue. In short, this product has reduced my son’s pain during pod and CGM changes and reduced my stress as the caregiver knowing his medical devices will be inserted properly. It’s also saved us time (and more pain) from having to peel off wasted and unusable products just to do it all over again, and reduced the hassle of hours and days of calling the suppliers to obtain replacement equipment.

As we replace his Pod every 3 days, and his CGM every 10, your device is a comfort in my hand. I earnestly mean it when I say I would love to share how we use it in our process (and it is a process!). I know this price point is significantly out of reach for some folks, but even if the knowledge that this aid is out there, it could reduce immeasurable discomfort and emotional agony that families with diabetes endure daily (particularly when the diagnosis is in the first year).

I believe that if diabetes clinics were made aware of how to use the Veinlite PEDI2 in this manner, it could make the initial diagnosis and following hospital stay less traumatic for the patient and their family. You have a great product, and I would love it if its presence could be even more impactful in the medical world. With deep gratitude, the mother of a diabetic child.

Thank you, Veinlite!

Incredibly useful device!

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Why is a pediatric-specific vein illuminator necessary?

Children have smaller, more fragile veins obscured by adipose tissue, making IV access significantly more challenging than in adults. Studies show pediatric first-attempt success rates are only 39-73%, and children with DIVA scores ≥4 have >50% chance of first-attempt failure. The PEDI2's smaller profile is specifically designed for pediatric anatomy.

How does PEDI2 reduce trauma and anxiety in pediatric patients?

Children experience significant pain and anxiety during venipuncture, and multiple attempts are particularly traumatic. Research shows parents rate pain as a major concern, and procedural stress can have lasting psychological effects. PEDI2 increases first-attempt success, reducing both physical and emotional trauma.

What age range is the PEDI2 most effective for?

PEDI2 is designed for ages 0-17, but it's particularly valuable for infants and toddlers (especially 6-12 months) who clinicians identify as most challenging. The device works excellent on the hand, foot, and scalp veins commonly accessed in infants, as well as forearm and AC veins in older children.

Why does the PEDI2 have a smaller profile than other models?

Pediatric hands, feet, and limbs are significantly smaller than adults. The compact PEDI2 design allows better positioning on tiny anatomical structures, making it easier to illuminate small vessels in confined spaces like an infant's hand or the dorsum of a small foot.

Can PEDI2 help reduce the need for scalp vein access?

Often, yes. While scalp veins remain an option, many providers prefer to avoid them due to cosmetic concerns and parental anxiety. PEDI2 makes peripheral hand and foot veins more visible, often allowing successful access at these preferred sites and reserving scalp access as a last resort.

How does PEDI2 support family-centered care?

Parents are deeply distressed watching multiple IV attempts on their children. Studies show this affects family satisfaction and trust in the care team. By improving first-attempt success, PEDI2 reduces parental anxiety and supports the family-centered care model that builds trust and cooperation.

Does PEDI2 work on children with darker skin tones or obesity?

Yes. These are documented risk factors for difficult pediatric IV access. PEDI2's transillumination technology works regardless of skin pigmentation and helps visualize veins beneath subcutaneous fat—two of the primary challenges in modern pediatric patient populations.

How does PEDI2 support the "two-stick rule" in pediatric care?

Most guidelines recommend no more than 2 attempts per clinician before seeking assistance. PEDI2 maximizes your chance of success within those attempts by helping you identify the best vessel before needle insertion. This protects children from excessive attempts while respecting evidence-based protocols.

Can PEDI2 help with children who need frequent IV access (oncology, chronic illness)?

Critically important. Children undergoing chemotherapy or with chronic conditions requiring regular IV access often have depleted, scarred, or fragile veins. PEDI2 helps preserve vein capital by improving accuracy and reducing the number of sites compromised by failed attempts.

Is PEDI2 suitable for neonatal units?

While we designed the NEO specifically for neonates, PEDI2 works well for older infants beyond 8 weeks and throughout childhood. For the smallest neonates, we recommend our NEO model which uses through-the-body transillumination optimized for newborn anatomy.
