Comparison of Early Phase Infections Risk Between Midline and Piccline Caheters: MIDLINE AND PICCLINE CATHETERS (PICCORMID)

March 2, 2022 updated by: University Hospital, Brest

A long-term venous access is frequently required in patient management. Currently, it is ensured by using the long peripheral intravenous catheters (Midline) or peripheral inserted central catheters (PICC line). Either is inserted into a peripheral vein of the upper arm and extends to the distal axillary vein.

If the indications for the two catheters can sometimes be debated, the Midline catheter seems to be more and more used. The complications related to the use of PICC lines have been well described in literature, whereas the comparison of the two catheter-related complications has been less analysed.

The aim of this study is to compare the incidences of catheter-related bloodstream infections linked to PICCs and Midlines.

Status

Recruiting

Detailed Description

This single-center observational study will record and compare Midline and PICC line catheter-related bloodstream infections in the first 30 days after placement, catheter-related bloodstream infections being defined as clinical signs associated with a positive catheter culture (bacterial culture finding more than 103 CFU/mL) without any other infectious entry points.

Catheter indications, insertion conditions, incidence of haemorrhagic and thrombotic complications during the first 30 days will be analyzed.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Compared rate of catheter-related bloodstream infections in the first 30 days in Midline and PICCline group. Catheter-related bloodstream infections are defined as clinical signs with a positive catheter culture without any other infectious entry points.
Time Frame: first 30 days after placement

catheter-related bloodstream infections being defined as clinical signs (fever, swelling, pain) associated with a positive catheter culture (bacterial culture finding more than 103 CFU/mL) without any other infectious entry points.

the number of infections recorded will be compared between the group of patients having a Midline and the group of patients having a PICCline

first 30 days after placement

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
catheter placement time will be evaluated in days
Time Frame: first 30 days after placement
catheter placement time will be evaluted by measuring the time between catheter placement and removal in days
first 30 days after placement
rate of no infection complications like obstruction, accidental removal, thrombosis, hemorrhagic complications
Time Frame: first 30 days
The number of mechanical compliaction (obstruction, accidental removal, etc.), haemorrhagic and thrombotic complications recorded will be compared between the group of patients having a Midline and the group of patients having a PICCline
