Today we had a call about a recent horrific experience during an admittance into a hospital. It took 3 nurses exploring (and damaging) veins in order to collect (or draw) blood. AS THE PATIENT... you have the right to know and understand there is an ADVANCED technique called the 21cVA method. This new technique is not someone's opinion that it works. 

It is a scientific fact proven to properly access the vein without damaging or rupturing your vein, and leaves little to no bruising and does NOT compromise your blood sample. The next time you have a blood draw lab order, please ASK FOR the 21cVA way to be performed. If your lab tech, nurse, physician or phlebotomist does not know what that is...have them visit www.21cVA.com to learn more. 

Eventually, every medical professional will be a PATIENT and they, too, will want a cVAT performing their blood collection or IV. Feel free to pass along and share.

veniCUFF REVEALED! It's finally here and we are excited to announce the TOURNIQUET REPLACEMENT for all blood collection procedures! NO MORE RUBBER HOSE AND A THUMP! 

The new veniCUFF and GENTLE TOUCH will prevent vein damage and rupture by eliminating the tourniquet side affect known as "over distention" of the vein. The proto-type veniCUFF shown in the photo [left] will debut in November in Chicago, IL. This new tool will be available for patient purchase as well as wholesale to clinics, hospitals and labs. 

Although not required, the veniCUFF works at its full potential when used with the advanced blood draw technique, the 21cVA method.  

Both tool technology (veniCUFF) and technique (21cVA) vein access advancement in the blood draw/collection/IV/IOC procedures has been over twenty years in the making.  M. Gail Stotler, founder of Vein Access Technologies,  will be introducing the veniCUFF proto-type at upcoming seminars and tradeshows.  See for yourself how it will change the future of vein access procedures.   

Please feel free to share the veniCUFF information with family and friends. The next generation of vein access has definitely arrived!
