AB  - Purpose: The VEID (vein entry indicator device) is a small pressure sensor for indicating venous entry. This paper describes our experience of using the VEID in the field of pediatric surgery. Material and Methods: We used a VEID for taking blood samples from 158 patients, venous access for 23 patients and central venous catheter insertion for five patients. A survey of seven doctors using VEID was performed. Results: The VEID worked well for taking blood samples and venous access. On the other hand, it failed to work for four out of five patients for central venous catheter insertion. Three doctors felt that the VEID was very useful, four felt it was useful, and no one felt it was useless. However, four doctors thought that the VEID needes some modification. Conclusion: The VEID is not an essential device, but it could provide confidence to physicians. Furthermore, it reduces the uneasiness or tension of the patients at the time of procedure.
