Time management for picc placement

Does anyone have a benchmark for time of picc eval to time of placement? Or is there not any.

The Vessel Health & Preservation protocol indicates "Vascular access assessment within 24 hours of admission with placement within 48 h regardless of point of entry."
I don't have the full reference but hopefully this will point you in the right direction (also available from an Arrow rep):
