A retrospective evaluation of the use of the peripherally inserted central catheters that were inserted by a small, credentialed nursing staff to provide ongoing venous access in the general adult and pediatric patient population at the University of Rochester Medical Center in Rochester, New York. Between 1993 and 1995, 602 catheters were inserted in 775 suitable patients. Correct catheter tip placement in the superior vena cava was achieved in 95% of placements with a catheter dwell time ranging from less than 1 day to 353 days (average, 24 days). Strict adherence to obtaining and monitoring quality assurance kept catheter complications to a minimum.
对纽约罗切斯特大学医学中心由一小批具备资质的护理人员插入的外周静脉中心导管的使用情况进行回顾性评估，这些导管用于为普通成年和儿科患者群体提供持续的静脉通路。在1993年至1995年期间，775名合适的患者共插入了602根导管。95%的导管尖端正确放置在上腔静脉，导管留置时间从不到1天至353天不等（平均24天）。严格遵守获取和监测质量保证措施，将导管并发症降至最低。
