24.01.2022 Additional securement products associated with less PICC failure Almost 70% of hospitalized patients require a peripheral intravenous catheter (PIV), yet up to 69% of PIVs fail prior to completion of therapy, due to reasons such as partial dislodgement or accidental removal. The following study carried out by the AVATAR (Group in Queensland, found that amongst a wide list of variables, additional securements of PICC lines were associated with less PICC failure. More specific...ally, additional securement products were significantly associated with less phlebitis (vein wall irritation/inflammation), occlusion (blockage), infiltration or extravasation (IV fluids/vesicant therapy entering surrounding tissue), partial dislodgement or accidental removal, leakage, and infection. Failures were 17% phlebitis, 14% occlusion/ infiltration, and 10% dislodgement, with some PIVs exhibiting multiple concurrent complications. The AVATAR (Alliance for Vascular Access Teaching and Research) Group, based in Queensland, is a respected independent research group specializing in highly credible scientific vascular access device research. AVATAR undertakes a significant program of clinical trials, laboratory, systematic review and knowledge translation research including health economics, to improve health services and patient outcomes, to rigorously and independently test products and practices, and to promote local and global networks. Our team at PICCsox first heard of this study from an oral presentation presented by the AVATAR Group at the 31st Annual Scientific Meeting of the Association for Vascular Access in September of 2017 in Phoenix, Arizona. The AVA meeting is one of the biggest Vascular Access conferences in the world and is attended by the worlds leading VA specialists. To order: https://piccsox.com.au/product/piccsox/ #PICCsox

Its a type of central line.... The line goes into a vein in your arm, under local anaesthetic. A doctor or nurse can put it in during an outpatient appointment. The line runs up the vein inside your arm and ends up in a large vein in your chest. PICC lines can be left in for several months and used in a similar way to other central lines.
