midline catheter reviews

 I have been unable to find catheter reviews on midline catheters regarding brands. 

Can anyone tell me their experience, pros/cons with brands of midline catheters?  We're looking to add midlines to the peds hospital.

Well Lucy...

I can tell you that I work predominantly with the geriatric populi and place Groshong Midlines and PICC's. I believe that they are the best for our population because: 1. they are valved and therefore only need saline flushing, and 2. They are repairable, which for my patients is a huge plus, as I believe it would be in pediatrics.

We tried the Bard Powerglide.

We tried the Bard Powerglide. We had 3 incidences of shearing by three different nurses. We are now piloting the Angiodynamics Bioflo Midline.

We are loving the Angiodynamics midline!
