Study on the Incidence of Early Deep Vein Thrombosis After Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter Insertion (DVT-PICC)

April 26, 2016 updated by: Michele Pagani, IRCCS Policlinico S. Matteo

Prospective Study on the Incidence of Early Deep Vein Thrombosis After Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter Insertion

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is one of the most important complications after Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) insertion. This study goals are to understand when and why DVT develops.

Detailed Description

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is one of the most important complications after Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) insertion. This study goals are to understand when and why DVT develops. Patients will be studied with ultrasound for 4 weeks after PICC insertion, one visit a week. The final outcome of PICCs will be collected.
