NOTE:
DO NOT USE less than 10mL syringes for flushing the catheter. The smaller the syringe: the greater the psi and that can rupture the catheter. C 2 - 1/11

NOTE: The catheter tip location should be outside the heart. Preference is to withdraw the catheter to re-position rather than advance it. If the long line is withdrawn to re-position, another radiograph must be taken to confirm that it is in an acceptable position. A new infusion set-up and fluid must be used to connect to the new catheter. Picture 1
Preferred Veins for Peripheral Insertion of PICC Lines Basilic Cephalic Long Saphenous Scalp and Axillary Veins Measurement of PICC Lines Arm Veins From the insertion site along the arm to the shoulder joint, then to the sternal notch at the second intercostal space. This is the approximate location of the superior vena cava. The line should be at or below this position and at least 1 cm. proximal to the right atrium. Leg Veins Measure from insertion site to the xiphisternum. Aim is for catheter to be above L4/5 and at least 1cm proximal to the right atrium. Scalp Veins (Only if absolutely necessary) From the insertion site to the clavicular head and then to the second intercostal space (T2) if using the right side OR from the clavicular head diagonally to the second intercostal space (T2) if using the left. Femoral Veins (Not recommended) Not recommended because of increased risk of sepsis and necrosis of femoral head.

A rectangular piece of Comfeel (about 1.5 x 2.5cm). Steristrips into sections as Diagram 1. A piece of sterile rubber glove for tourniquet(Optional). A hole in the centre of the 2nd plastic sheet. Shape the small piece of plastic (from the hole of the plastic sheet) into a small square (approx. 2.5 x 2.5 cm). Put the square plastic to stick on the large tagederm (Picture 6).
To provide a platform for the cannula and white catheter connection (See Picture 5). For use as a tourniquet. To insert the infants limb for the catheter insertion.
To position the plastic that is adhered to the tagederm on the insertion site: to avoid accidental dislodgement during dressing change. C 2- 4/11

PROCEDURE PROCESS
22 Requests assistant (assistant must scrub and put sterile gloves on) to hold the infants limb with one of his/her gloved hand (keep the other gloved hand sterile). 23 MO cleans the insertion site with antiseptic solution - twice starting with the extremities. Leave to air-dry. 24 MO applies sterile gauze over the cleaned extremities for the assistant to hold with his/her clean gloved hand (Picture 7).
RATIONALE
For cleaning with antiseptic solution.
To ensure the insertion site is cleaned for the sterile procedure. To clean the lower part of the limb.
Picture 7 25 Using his/her dirty gloved hand, assistant pushes the blue inco-pad down from the limb for the MO clean twice. 26 After cleaning, MO inserts the cleaned limb through the hole of the sterile plastic. Maintain sterility. To provide maximal barrier. C 2- 5/11

PROCEDURE PROCESS
25 Assistant continues to hold the cleansed limb with the sterile gauze for the MO to drape with green cloth (Pictures 8 & 9) and secures with towel clips. 26 MO transfers the folded green drape (that contains the catheter and other instruments) on the sterile field of the bed. 27 MO removes the first set of sterile gloves (without contaminating the second set of gloves) and discard. 28 Applies tourniquet above insertion site (Picture 10). For easy access to equipment and catheter for the procedure without risk of accidental contamination. The first set of gloves is for preparation and cleaning the site with antiseptic solution. The second set of sterile gloves is for the insertion procedure. To pool blood in the vein for cannulation.
RATIONALE
Picture 10 29 MO commences cannulation: When flashback occurs in the yellow cannula, remove the introducer. Using a non-toothed forceps, inserts and advances the catheter in 0.5-1cm increments through the cannula to the premeasured length (Picture 11). Flush the catheter with saline while threading if obstruction is realised. Confirms that the cannula is in the vein. To avoid contamination of the catheter with contaminants from the gloves. To avoid venous irritation and the development of phlebitis (Hadaway, 1998) use slow and controlled insertion manoeuvres. It also allows the catheter to float into the central circulation with the flow of blood. To minimize trauma to the vessel, threading the catheter should take at least 3060 seconds. To facilitate insertion. C 2- 6/11

PROCEDURE PROCESS
29 When catheter is advanced, apply gentle pressure on the insertion site and simultaneously ease the yellow cannula out without removing the catheter. PREFERABLE: Do NOT remove the cannula from insertion site until feeding the catheter to designated length is complete to avoid contamination. 30 Apply continual pressure to insertion site if bleeding continues. Secure the catheter with a short piece of steristrip on the skin - about 0.5cm away from the insertion site (Picture 12). Apply the 2nd small piece of steristrip to overlap onto the 1st steristrip. Flush the hub of the yellow cannula with a18g needle attached to the 5mL syringe of normal saline. Secure the yellow cannula onto the white wingedconnection of the catheter (Picture 13) with a steristrip. To arrest bleeding. Securing the catheter is a priority to avoid accidental dislodgement. To re-enforce the 1st steristrip. To remove access blood in the yellow cannula. To anchor the yellow cannula to the white wingedconnection of catheter.
RATIONALE
To remove the cannula from the vein to be secured to the white winged connection of the catheter.

Picture 15 37 Stick the rectangular Comfeel on the infants skin and secure the yellow cannula on it. (Picture 16 application on a mannequin).
Picture 17 To provide a platform to prevent pressure area for the cannula and white winged-connector.
Picture 16 38 If bleeding, place Cavilon sponge onto the insertion site and surrounding steristrips and apply gentle pressure for 30 seconds. Remove when bleeding stops. 39 Coil excess catheter around the entry site without crossing the long line (Picture 17). 40 Secure the coiled line with a steristrip (Picture 17). DO NOT apply excessive steristrips. 41 Stick the large tegederm that has a plastic attached (Picture 18) on the catheter site. Ensure the plastic is placed on the insertion site and steristrips are completely covered by the tagederm (Picture 18). Stick the small tegederm to cover the yellow cannula and remainder of the catheter. 42 MO request assistant/SMO to organise x-ray. Request the xray technician to bring Omnipaque (x-ray contrast).
Using excessive steristrips creates difficulty in removing the dressing during dressing change and a potential for catheter dislodgement when the old dressing is being removed. The plastic minimises the catheter sticking to the tegederm and the potential of removal. The dressing is applied before xray to avoid contamination. Attendance of Xray technicians can inadvertently be delayed. Constrast is required to be administered prior to the xray. C 2-8/11
PROCEDURE PROCESS
43 MO draw up 1mL of Omnipaque in a 10mL syringe. 44 MO inject (pulsatile action push-pause x 6) the x-ray contrast into the catheter for the x-ray. 45 After x-ray, flush (pulsatile push-pause action x 6) the catheter with normal saline in a 10mL syringe. 46 The MO remains scrubbed to maintain asepsis whilst waiting for the x-ray result. 47 When catheter position is confirmed, MO removes all equipment and drapes from the infant. 48 Ensure the infants surrounding skin is cleaned with water and dried. 49 MO removes all sharps and discards appropriately before transferring the tray of equipment to the CSD bin in Utility Room. 50 MO removes green gown and gloves correctly (Page xx ) 51 MO checks the surveillance form and completes the relevant sections (Appendix 1). 52 Documents relevant information in the infants notes: infants tolerance to the procedure additional support required during the procedure eg. supplemental oxygen, insertion site catheter size and length position. To minimise contamination. To be able to re-adjust catheter if required. To avoid potential accidents with equipment. To avoid potential chemical burns on infants skin. Residual cleaning solutions on the infants skin can be a potential for chemical skin burns. To avoid Sharps Injuries. Do not use sustained pressure during injection of xray contrast. It can result in a fractured catheter or a pin-hole catheter rupture.
