The dorsal venous plexus of the hand and the ensuing cephalic (1) and basilic (2) veins drain the superficial aspects of the hand. The cephalic vein ends up in the axillary vein just before it becomes the subclavian and the basilic vein joins the brachial vein to become the axillary vein...

Dose-response curves were constructed in smokers and nonsmokers by infusing bradykinin (1-278 ng/min), an endothelium-dependent vasodilator, and nitroglycerin (0.006-1,583 ng/min), an endothelium-independent vasodilator, into hand veins preconstricted with the selective alpha1-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine.

Increasing dosages of the vasoconstrictors below their threshold of systemic activity were employed in order to obtain dose-response curves of the hand veins congested at a venous occlusion pressure of 40 mmHg. These dose-response curves were repeated 1 and 3.5 h after oral administration of either carvedilol, prazosin,

A virtual reality hand, complete with vital veins, that "feels" could help trainee nurses practise their jabs. ...
