Summary

Cystic fibrosis is a rare chronic genetic disease that mainly affects the respiratory tract and the digestive system. Their management includes multi-year intravenous antibiotic treatments and repeated venous sampling. The venous access is a source of difficulties that nurses who take care of these patients face on a daily basis. In addition, multiple attempts at punctures can induce anxiety and pain in patients. It is therefore important to limit failures.

Vein visualization technologies exist: guidance echo, portable trans lumination or infrared visualization can guide venipuncture and limit failures.

Compared with the guided echo or the portable trans lumination, the infrared visualization is easy to use and does not pose a risk for the patient. Nevertheless, studies evaluating this technique are few in chronic diseases and mainly conducted in young children.

This study aims to show that the use of a vein illumination system (VIS) should improve the peripheral venous access at the first attempt (thus limiting venous lesions) in adolescent and adult patients with cystic fibrosis, and improve comfort of the patient (pain, apprehension of the gesture).
