Abstract

We performed a quality improvement project to decrease utilization of multilumen peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) in favor of single-lumen PICCs and midline catheters. Through optimization of electronic orders, education and decision support, we decreased utilization of multilumen PICCs, changed provider ordering patterns, and showed a downward trend in CLABSIs.
