It feels like it has a bounce or resilience to it.
Vein patency is openness of the vein to allow blood to pass through. If the vein is patent, it is not blocked.
It is used to diagnose blockages in the splenic vein and portal-vein thrombosis and to assess the patency and location of the vascular system prior to liver transplantation.

Patency means openness. Having open blood vessels is a good thing; it means they're not blocked.
Usually at the neck (the vein on the side) does.

"Palpate" a vein.... This is an acquired skill. A vein will have an elastic feel when lightly compressed and then released. There will also be a "collapse" sensation when it is compressed that will be distinctly different than the surrounding tissue. As most veins suitable for drawing blood will run along the long axis of the extremity these sensations should be detectable as you trace the path of the vein. The best way to learn is to start by palpating visible veins, then following the path of the vein as in passes deeper in the surrounding tissue. You may be surprised how far you can feel the vein once you do some practicing. With a constriction band (tourniquet) in place the feel of the vein will be more pronounced. Practice palpating a vein without one to get good at it!
