摘要：
A needle guide assembly for vein access including (a) a guide having a peripheral edge, a convex portion, a concave portion and an aperture, where the concave portion and the convex portion meet each other to define the aperture between the concave portion and the convex portion, each of the convex portion and the concave portion extending away from the aperture in opposite directions from each other in a tapering manner and terminating the tapering at respective locations away from the peripheral edge, the convex portion being made of a transparent or translucent material, and (b) a retaining means for retaining the guide to skin. A venipuncture method includes retaining the needle guide assembly onto the skin of a patient and using the needle guide assembly to guide a needle to puncture the skin and access a vein.
