About

The website describes a technique called Dynamic Needle Tip Positioning, which helps doctors and nurses find the tip of a needle during procedures like placing an IV. Using ultrasound, they can see exactly where the needle is inside the body. This makes it safer and easier to put needles in veins or arteries, especially for children or people with hard-to-find veins. The method helps reduce mistakes and makes patients more comfortable during these medical procedures.
