FEATURES

Made for your point of care

With vibrant images and automated tools, Venue simplifies complicated procedures—improving efficacy of nerve blocks and enhancing patient comfort and safety.
SIMPLE TO USE

Streamlined to quickly assess patient status

Precise blocks built on one platform, the entire Venue family has simplified the steps required for operation and features improved accessibility. Its button probes allow you to perform procedures that once required two people with only a single person.
PRECISE

Accurate imaging for enhanced clinical confidence

Helping improve patient outcomes by reducing error rates, Venue’s imaging software is optimized to help the nerve stand out from other types of tissue. Allowing you to differentiate between the needle and patient anatomy with confidence, Venue family systems guide you with a real-time view of anatomy, needle advancement and local anesthetic spread.
FAST

Presets for improved operational efficiency

With nerve specific presets that quickly set image parameters, Venue family systems store the appropriate settings to use for anatomy and probe type to get you scanning faster. Playing an important role in ensuring image quality and clinical efficiency, presets aim to greatly reduce the number of controls you need to adjust in order to optimize images.
AUTO VOLUME FLOW

Auto measurement with Auto Volume Flow

Use the auto measurement to calculate the brachial or radial artery flow volume in real time for dialysis procedure preparation. Helps you calculate the arterial flow volume in real-time (based on vessel diameter and PW spectral doppler flow measurement).

Be prepared for nerve block procedures

With its straightforward design, the Venue family of point of care ultrasound systems empower you to make fast clinical decisions with confidence.

Follow nerve block procedures with cNerve

Helps detect and track nerves in 99% of cases during live scanning or while reviewing a stored clip2 while also displaying a distribution map of the areas on the body impacted by the selected nerve block procedure.

Visualize more anatomy in a single scan with Virtual Convex

This tool provides a wide field of view so users can visualize more large anatomy structures in a single scan while also aiming to enhance image quality on linear probes.

Remove the clutter with Simple Screen

See only what you need to see with Simple Screen mode, a feature that allows you to see up to a 39%3 larger ultrasound image and view only the icons they want.

Automatically recall parameter settings with Follow Up

Delivering consistent and clear conclusions for repeated exams on the same patient, Follow Up automatically recalls parameter settings from a previous exam including comments and body patterns. It also supports monitoring of patient response to treatment over time, allowing a side-by-side view of historical and new images.

Improved visualization with Needle Recognition

Needle Recognition also allows you to easily differentiate between the needle and patient anatomy with confidence—allowing you to quickly guide the needle exactly where it needs to be and helping to minimize patient discomfort.
