This study evaluates risks for PICC BSI among patients (pts) at an academic hospital. Methods. PICC BSI rate was calculated among all pts with PICCs inserted between July 2009-July 2012. A nested case control study (1:3 ratio of PICC BSI cases to no ...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness analysis of ultrasound-guided Seldinger peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC)
BACKGROUND Ultrasound-guided cannulation of deep mid-arm veins by a modified Seldinger (US-Seldinger) technique has been demonstrated to yield better puncture success rates and lower postoperative complication rates than direct cannulation of superficial veins near the elbow with a short peripheral cannula and peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) insertion through the cannula (non-US c...
