Could anyone share their thoughts on PICC placement on ipsilateral/contralateral side in a patient who currently has or has a history of central venous thrombosis?
Read INS SOP CVAD Associated thrombosis. Do complete patient assessment. What medical diagnoses? Any that have increased risk for thrombosis. What was cause of previous thrombosis ? How treated? For how long ? What is current infusion therapy? Is CVAD required? Lots to consider. Lynn
