Cost-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...
متن کاملIncidence of upper limb venous thrombosis associated with peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC).
The objective of this study was to prospectively determine the incidence of venous thrombosis (VT) in the upper limbs in patients with peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC). We prospectively investigated the incidence of VT in the upper limbs of 26 patients who had PICC inserted. The inclusion criteria were all patients who had a PICC inserted, whilst the exclusion criterion was the in...
متن کاملComplications 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...

treatment of critically ill patients. For skilled intensive care unit (ICU) physicians, insertion of these catheters in large central veins is routine practice. Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) were used in the early phase of intensive care as a surrogate for centrally inserted lines by less experienced physicians and in some departments (for example, hematology) with very specif...
متن کاملPeripherally inserted central catheters in the neonatal period.
PURPOSE Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) have been extensively used in neonates. However, insertion of these thinnest catheters is a very delicate procedure associated with a high failure rate. In our Neonatal Surgical Intensive Care Unit, we developed a very easy new PICC insertion and evaluated the neonates treated with PICCs which were inserted by using our technique as well as...
