Complications of Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (picc) in Neonates
Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) is an intravenous device whose distal end is located in the vena cava, becoming a central venous catheter; despite its benefits, can aggregate risk to the neonates. Aimed to characterize and analyze the PICC complications in neonates. An exploratory, descriptive, documentary and retrospective research with a quantitative approach; ethical principles...
متن کاملUse of real-time ultrasound for locating tip position in neonates undergoing peripherally inserted central catheter insertion: A pilot study
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Securing long-term venous access is an essential part of sick newborn care. The malposition of central line tip leads to several complications. There is a need for an easily available bedside investigating tool to diagnose these malpositions. This study was done to compare the effectiveness of real-time ultrasound (RTUS) with X-ray in identifying the peripherally inserte...
متن کاملAn Accuracy Study of the Intracavitary Electrocardiogram (IC-ECG) Guided Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter Tip Placement among Neonates
OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical application of the intracavitary electrocardiogram (IC-ECG) guided Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) tip placement among neonates. BACKGROUND the ECGs of neonates are difficult to perform and their wave shapes are of doubtful accuracy due to various interfering factors. METHOD 115 neonates were admitted to perform PICC guided by IC-ECG. Logistic...
متن کامل[Initial placement of the peripherally inserted central catheter's tip in neonates].
This is a cross-sectional study aiming to identify the initial tip position of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) and to verify the prevalence of success in inserting such catheters in neonates. The study was carried out in the neonatal care unit of Hospital das Clinicas, Universidade de São Paulo. Data were collected prospectively from March to September 2006. 37 neonates underwent...
متن کاملIncidence of catheter-related bloodstream infections in neonates following removal of peripherally inserted central venous catheters.
OBJECTIVES Catheter-associated bloodstream infections are a significant source of morbidity and healthcare cost in the neonatal ICU. Previous studies examining the prevalence of bloodstream infections after removal of peripherally inserted central venous catheters in neonates are equivocal. DESIGN A retrospective cohort study. PATIENTS All infants with peripherally inserted central venous c...
