  1. Central Venous Access Devices

  2. Objectives The learner will be able to: • Discuss the differences between peripherally inserted versus centrally inserted central venous access devices. • Identify ideal patient characteristics for each type of catheter presented.

  3. Types of Intravenous Access Devices • Peripheral intravenous access (IV) • Subcutaneous infusion devices • Midline catheters • Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) • Central venous lines (nontunneled) • Central venous catheters (CVCs) (tunneled) • Implanted ports • Apheresis/hemodialysis catheters

  4. Central Venous Catheters • Types of central catheters include: • Percutaneous (nontunneled) • Tunneled • Peripherally inserted (PICC) • Implanted ports.

  5. Routes of Administration:PICC • Used for patients with limited peripheral veins and with need for venous access for a limited time (weeks for midline; FDA has approved PICC use for up to 12 months.) • PICC can be used for vesicants/irritating solutions, TPN. • Requires significant patient education to care for at home • Complications similar to those of other central lines

  7. Routes of Administration:Nontunneled CVC • Used for short-term treatment (up to six weeks) • Patients with poor peripheral vein access or have need for frequent venous access • Poor surgical candidate or shortened life expectancy • Critically ill requiring multiple lumens • Are removed when therapy complete

  8. Routes of Administration:Tunneled CVC • Open-end distal tip catheters: Require clamping for connection of IV tubing or syringes • Closed-ended two-way pressure-sensitive valve tip catheters: Clamping not required1 • Used for long-term IV access • Percutaneous or cut-down insertion

  9. CVC: Tunneled (Reprinted with permission from Lenz Marketing, Decatur, GA)

  10. Routes of Administration:Implanted Venous Port • Portal body (septum and reservoir) and catheter • Used for those needing intermittent IV therapy or who do not want to/cannot care for an external line • Good for patients with active lifestyles1 • Ample chest area required2 • Power ports can withstand additional pressure.3
