Recommended veins are cephalic, basilic or median cubital basilic. The PowerPICC* SV catheter features a reverse-taper catheter design. Caution: Placement of larger catheters at or below antecubital fossa may result in an increased incidence of phlebitis.

Aspirate for adequate blood return and flush each lumen of the catheter to ensure patency. In addition, lock each lumen of the catheter with heparinized saline. Usually, one mL per lumen is adequate.

    Warning: When using alcohol or alcohol containing antiseptics with polyurethane PICCs, care should be taken to avoid prolonged or excessive contact. Solutions should be allowed to completely dry before applying an occlusive dressing. Chlorhexidine gluconate and/or povidone iodine are the suggested antiseptics to use. Warning: Alcohol should not be used to lock, soak or declot polyurethane PICCs because alcohol is known to degrade polyurethane catheters over time with repeated and prolonged exposure.
