Aimed to characterize and analyze the PICC complications in neonates. An exploratory, descriptive, documentary and retrospective research with a quantitative approach; ethical principles...
متن کاملThe incidence and risk factors of peripherally inserted central catheter-related infection among cancer patients
BACKGROUND As the use of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) increased in chemotherapy, the identification of complications and risk factors became essential to prevent patient harm. But little is known about PICC-related infection and risk factors among patients with cancer. Our study was to identify the prevalence, patterns, and risk factors of catheter-related infections associat...
