Peripherally inserted central catheters.

Abstract

Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) can meet the needs of patients requiring short- to intermediate-term intravenous therapy in a variety of settings. PICCs minimise insertion and catheter-related complications when compared to other central venous access devices (CVADs). PICCs have been introduced in the UK mainly through innovative advanced nursing practice.
