Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters: An Essential Medical Device for IV Treatment
What are PICCs?
PICCs, or peripherally inserted central catheters, are long, thin, flexible tubes that are inserted into a vein in the arm and then threaded into a large vein near the heart. PICCs are used to deliver medications, fluids, blood products, and nutrition into the bloodstream when intravenous (IV) access is needed for an extended period, often weeks or months.
In PICCs provide reliable long-term IV access for patients requiring frequent or ongoing administration of medications, fluids, nutrition or blood products. With proper insertion, maintenance and nursing care, PICCs safely and comfortably deliver therapy right into the central circulation for weeks or months at a time. As one of the most commonly used vascular access devices, PICCs are an essential medical technology relied upon across many clinical settings.
