Abstract:Intravenous(IV) access is animportant daily clinical procedure that delivers fluids or medication into a patient’s vein. However, IV insertion is very challenging where clinicians aresuffering in locating the subcutaneous vein due to patients’physiological factorssuch as hairy forearm and thick dermis fat, and alsomedical staff’s level of fatigue. To resolve this issue, researchers have proposed autonomous machines to be usedfor IV access,but such equipmentarelackingcapab… Show more
