Two-year trends of peripherally inserted central catheter-line complications at a tertiary-care hospital: role of nursing expertise.

D Funk1, J Gray, P J Plourde.   

Abstract

We found reductions in peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) complication rates over 2 years of observation (20.4 vs 13.8/1,000 line-days; relative risk, 0.5-0.9). This difference represents a cost saving due to reduced line reinsertions and reduced use of thrombolytic agents. The presence of a dedicated PICC insertion nursing team and education of ward nurses in PICC maintenance is a plausible explanation for the observed differences.
