West Face Medical is a brand that specializes in needle-integrated forward-facing imaging for vascular access. Their groundbreaking product, the SingleStick adapter, is a cost-effective disposable device that offers real-time imaging for procedures involving hollow-bore needles and probes. In the field of medicine, many needle-based procedures are typically performed without direct visualization.

Venipuncture, in particular, is a commonly performed invasive procedure worldwide, with billions of cases annually. However, even with existing imaging aids, the failure rates for these procedures range from 20-30% in easy access patients and 45-70% in difficult patients. This can result in increased medical costs, patient dissatisfaction, and potential complications.

SingleStick TM has the potential to revolutionize vascular access procedures by eliminating blind-sticks and transforming the way imaging is utilized for clinician guidance. It allows practitioners to visualize and identify anatomical markers in real-time without significant modifications to existing needles and techniques.
