Outline of Final Research Achievements

After confirming the visualization performance of Veinsite, a wearable and portable hands-free Near InfraRed (NIR) device, we conducted a quasi-experimental study. Forty-seven nursing students were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (N=23) and a control group (N=24). All subjects performed simulated venipuncture for one person without visible veins. When simulated puncturing, subjects in the experimental group used Veinsite while subjects in the control group didn’t use the device. Accuracy of venipuncture was evaluated by the degree of gap between the simulated puncture site and the center of the vein. As a result, the gap between the puncture site and the venous vessel in the experimental group was significantly smaller than that in the control group. It was suggested that venipuncture could be performed more accurately by using the wearable and portable hands-free NIR device.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究によって、静脈穿刺の臨床経験がほとんどない者であっても、ウェアラブル静脈透過デバイスを用いることで、目視できない静脈に対してより正確に穿刺針をアプローチさせることが可能となることが明らかとなった。デバイスの普及により、複数回の穿刺に伴う患者の身体的・精神的苦痛をなくし、医療資源の無駄をなくすことにつながると考えられる。また経験の浅い看護師であっても穿刺の難易度に関係なく確実に穿刺できるようになることで、看護師のストレスを軽減させることが期待される。さらには、看護の分野における最新の医療機器の導入による看護実践能力向上のエビデンスに資すると考えられる。
