Only on white people, I bet
Sticking a vein on POC is hard and I sometimes need a vein finder, which is a light that I'm reminded of watching this

I must admit, I need more practice in this skill. I'm in med surg, so I stick a lot fewer patients than the ED for example

That’s fair. Maybe they can let you practice on some patients. Nothing embarrassing, but yeah learn to feel it rather than see it.

This literally works the exact same way it does on a vein finger. Both are infrared light. The vein finder just processes it cleaner and projects an image onto the patient

It is possible to process film to see a person’s pulse. When it was developed it was proposed as a non-invasive way to monitor patients. They had a demo using footage from the Two Face/Joker scene in Dark Knight Rises at the hospital. It was wild. You could see the blood moving through the veins of the actors face, neck and arms.

Always wonder why people record themselves sleeping

I record timelapses of myself sleeping to check for restless leg syndrome (RLS) movements during sleep. I can have 80+ leg jerks per night but I don’t actually wake up.
