Abstract:Objective To investigate the application of peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC)via three different vascular access in newborns. Methods A total of 145 newborns with PICC were assigned to the axillary vein group(n=35), superficial temporal vein group(n=68)and basilic vein group(n=42). The one-time success rate of puncture, difficult in catheterization and incidence of catheter dislocation were compared among three groups. The puncturing and indwelling time and catheter-related complication were observed. Results The puncturing time in axillary vein group was shorter than that of superficial temporal vein group and basilic vein group(P0.05), The incidence of errhysis was lower in the superficial temporal vein group than that of axillary vein group and basilic vein group(P0.05). Conclusion Nurses should take consideration of vascular access condition, difficult in operation when applying PICC, and to select appropriate vascular access.
