The primary goal of this randomized, controlled, open-label study is to determine the efficacy of AccuveinV400 (a transillumination veins device) to facilitate peripheral intravenous (IVP) catheter placement during a vaso-oclusive crisis. The investigators hypothesized that the number of attempts to a successful placement of a peripheral IV, our primary outcome, would be shorter with the assistance of the Accuvein V400. It is also expected that AccuveinV400 will reduce the time of the procedure, the rate of failure, the technique-related pain.

Sickle cell patients who need a new vein puncture in order to infuse them will benefit of AccuveinV400 device to illuminate their venous network
In the control group, the nurse proceeds as usual to infuse the patient (visual identification in the light of the chamber and palpation)

Number of venipunctures
Number of venipunctures until the peripheral IV placement (with a retrograde blood sample) or before failure (discontinuation after at least 3 attempts by 2 nurses and a maximum of 9 attempts in total).
Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure
Time of the procedure
Time from the tourniquet inflation to the insertion of the catheter with a retrograde blood sample was recorded with a chronometer
Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure
Procedure failure
Percentage of the procedure failure
Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure
The need of a central venous catheter
Percentage of use of a central venous catheter due to failure of peripheral perfusion.
Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure
Patient bone pain before and after the procedure
Patient bone pain will be evaluated by Visual Analogue Scale (between 0=no pain to10=intolerable pain) before and after the infusion procedure
Time frame: Before and within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement
Anxiety before and after the procedure
Patient and nurse anxiety will be evaluated by a visual 5 points-Likert scale (between 1=not at all anxiety to 5=extremely anxious) of anxiety before and after the procedure
Time frame: Just before and within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement
Patient satisfaction (pain)
Patient pain related to the procedure will be evaluated by Visual Analogue Scale (between 0=no pain to10=intolerable pain)
Time frame: Within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement
Patient satisfaction (procedure)
Patient satisfaction of the procedure will be evaluated by a visual 5-points Likert scale (between 1=not at all anxiety to 5=extremely anxious) of satisfaction of the procedure
Time frame: Within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement
Nurse satisfaction (procedure)
Nurse global satisfaction of the procedure will be evaluated by Likert scale (between 1=not at all anxiety to 5=extremely anxious)
Time frame: Within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement
Nurse satisfaction (quality of placement)
Nurse satisfaction of the quality of the peripheral intravenous placement will be evaluated by Likert scale (between 1=not at all anxiety to 5=extremely anxious)
Time frame: Within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement
Qualitative interview of the Accuvein use
Verbatim of a semi-structured interview by a psychologist of 10 to 15 patients (and their nurse) often hospitalized, in the Accuvein Arm
Time frame: An average of one week after the procedure
Side effects of the procedure
Complication rate of the peripheral venous catheter procedure (hematoma, bleeding, malaise).
Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure
