The use of vascular visualization technology is recommended to increase insertion success of the most appropriate vessel while reducing insertion-related complications, thereby promoting vessel health and preserving the patient's vasculature. In this episode of INS Infusion Room, leading experts Nancy Moureau, Dennis Ernst, and Peter Carr discuss the significance of vessel preservation, vascular visualization, and practice and educational goals that will improve patient outcomes.
