Transillumination Device for Peripheral Intravenous Placement in Patients With Sickle Cell Disease (PERFID)

The primary goal of this randomized, controlled, open-label study is to determine the efficacy of AccuveinV400 (a transillumination veins device) to facilitate peripheral intravenous (IVP) catheter placement during a vaso-oclusive crisis. The investigators hypothesized that the number of attempts to a successful placement of a peripheral IV, our primary outcome, would be shorter with the assistance of the Accuvein V400. It is also expected that AccuveinV400 will reduce the time of the procedure, the rate of failure, the technique-related pain.
