In making their selections, the publication seeks out products that help EMS professionals deliver outstanding patient care.

“EMS specialists deliver patient care under the most extreme conditions.

“Enerspect is focused on identifying emerging technologies that provide significant clinical benefit for emergency responders. Feedback from key thought leaders and early adopters indicated that AccuVein AV300 was clearly an innovative and valuable technology for both patients and providers. We felt it would be an excellent candidate for the EMS 2011 Top Innovation Award and are truly pleased that EMS World granted the award,” said Dave Shelton, President and CEO of Enerspect.

The AccuVein AV300 has received high praise from doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, patients and families for its ease of use, saving time and money and for improving patient care.

AccuVein’s industry-leading and award-winning AccuVein AV300 vein illumination solution is in use at more than 1000 hospitals and available for sale in 88 countries. The AV300 has been shown to improve peripheral vascular access for IV infusion by projecting a safe pattern of light on patient’s skin that reveals the position of underlying veins.

Venipuncture is the most common invasive medical procedure worldwide with an estimated 2.7 million procedures conducted every day in the United States alone.

Studies show that up to one third of these attempts to access a vein fail the first time, creating unnecessary patient discomfort as well as additional costs.
