The medication that caused my amputation was a vesicant drug. I never knew something like this could happen, until it happened to me.

Vesicant drugs with high or low pH levels can be extremely dangerous when administered through a peripheral IV.

Imagine putting soda into your vein and the surrounding tissue—or even worse, stomach acid or bleach. When these vesicants infiltrate, patients are at risk for severe injuries, even in the smallest amounts of fluid.

That’s why early detection is critical—and where smarter monitoring changes outcomes.
• ivWatch technology continuously monitors IV sites 5x per second for fluid outside the vessel
• Detects as little as 0.2 mL—far beyond what the human eye can catch
• Notifies clinicians in real time, with 99% sensitivity in

IV complications can become limb-threatening events.

Early warning signs may include:
• Intense, throbbing pain
• Swelling or discoloration
• Numbness or tingling
• Skin changes or blistering

These signs can develop within hours to days — and delayed recognition can limit treatment options often resulting in surgical interventions such as fasciotomy—or amputation.

Every IV site matters. Early detection and timely intervention are critical to reducing harm.
