    Area of Science:

    • Vascular anatomy
    • Emergency medicine
    • Surgical techniques

    Background:

    • Hypovolemic shock requires rapid volume resuscitation.
    • Established intravenous access can be challenging in profound shock.
    • Alternative venous access routes are crucial for timely intervention.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe an anatomical review and venesection technique for the proximal greater saphenous vein.
    • To propose this technique as an additional intravenous approach.

    Main Methods:

    • Anatomical review of the proximal greater saphenous vein.
    • Description of a specific venesection technique.

    Main Results:

    • Detailed anatomical landmarks for accessing the proximal greater saphenous vein.
