Buerger’s disease (also known as thromboangiitis obliterans) is a blood vessel disease that affects the arms and legs. Blood arteries enlarge, obstructing blood flow and allowing clots to develop. Pain, tissue damage, and even gangrene might result as a result of this (the death or decay of body tissues).
Although the actual cause of Buerger’s disease is uncertain, it is strongly associated to the use of tobacco. Tobacco compounds, according to researchers, may irritate the lining of blood vessels, causing them to enlarge.
The Following are the most common Buerger’s disease’s symptoms:
- Fingers or toes that appear pale, red, or bluish.
- Cold hands or feet.
- Pain in the hands and feet that may feel like burning or tingling.
- Pain in the legs, ankles, or feet when walking—often located in the arch of the foot.
- Skin changes or small painful sores on the fingers or toes.
Doctor may perform a simple test called the Allen’s test to examine blood flow through the arteries that bring blood to your hands during the diagnosing process. Needless to say, a highly professional gadget is required to precisely evaluate blood velocity and flow, as well as to assist in the selection of the appropriate treatment.
For such a delicate task, our tech-medical team highly recommends the Portable Vein Detector SIFVEIN-5.2, which tends to be the first choice of our phlebotomists for making this procedure easier.
The SIFVEIN-5.2 Vein Viewer is a medical observation instrument. This vein finder, SIFVEIN-5.2, features a distinct wavelength to allow oxyhemoglobin in surrounding tissues and vessels to absorb light. The information is filtered to display veins after photoelectric conversion and image processing.
If the infrared vein finder is clear enough, it can be used to quickly locate veins. Search for subcutaneous superficial blood vessels and help puncture if necessary. Assisted venous diagnosis, such as what occurs during the initial diagnosis of Buerger’s Disease, and intravenous injection are two examples.
Furthermore, the portable vein finder SIFVEIN-5.2 uses research and development patent technology to detect subcutaneous superficial veins using infrared light. Displaying in situ photos on the skin’s surface. In order to assist medical personnel in determining vascular direction and distribution, which is critical in this scenario. Furthermore, the upgraded model comes in a variety of colors, which might help with clarity and identification.
As a result, this medical vein finder assists intern nurses in completing injections, therefore resolving the issue of injection difficulty.
With all of these advanced capabilities, clinicians will have no trouble detecting veins during an Allen’s test because vein images will be displayed in crystal clear detail, ensuring a very accurate diagnosis and, as a result, appropriate treatment. There’s no need to wait any longer; the vein detector SIFVEIN-5.2 is now available to help both doctors and patients.
