Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2010
Central venous catheters (CVCs) are traditionally used for central venous access in the intensive care unit setting. Use of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) now often extends into the intensive care unit. The goal of this review is to compare the use and safety of PICCs vs CVCs in burn patients.

Intensive Care Medicine, 2010
Peripherally inserted central venous catheters (PICC) have been proposed as an alternative to central venous catheters (CVC). The aim of this study was to determine the thrombosis rate in relation to PICC placement in patients discharged from the intensive care unit (ICU).Data of patients admitted to the ICU (Careggi Teaching Hospital, Florence, Italy;

Peripherally inserted central venous catheters.
The Nursing clinics of North America, 1994It has been estimated that 5 million central venous catheters are used in the United States each year. The medical market has been inundated with vascular access devices representing phenomenal advancement in catheter technology. These devices are not without serious risk, however, and they require constant vigilance and scrupulous care to prevent life-

Central vs Peripheral Venous Catheters in Critically III Patients
Chest, 1986A prospective study of 2,209 intravenous catheters was performed in a multidisciplinary intensive care unit to determine when and why catheters were removed and which sites of insertion were associated with the least morbidity. Techniques of insertion were vigorously supervised.

Accuracy in documentation – a study of peripheral venous catheters
Journal of Clinical Nursing, 2009Aim. The aim was to explore the extent of postinsertion documentation of peripheral venous catheters (PVCs) in patients’ medical records, including the descriptions used to explain the PVC insertion site and determinants of PVC documentation.Background.

Why Are We Trimming Peripherally Inserted Central Venous Catheters?
Neonatal Network, 2004PERIPHERALLY INSERTED CENTRAL venous catheters (PICCs) are used as the standard of care for longterm intravenous access in neonates treated in neonatal intensive care units. Little evidence supports many of the practices associated with PICC lines, however.
