"Follow-up of Midlines Placed Outside the Intensive Care Unit: What Side Effects? An Observational Study"

France2,000 participantsStarted 2019-12-23

Plain-language summary

Midline catheter is a peripherally-inserted catheter, with the distal tip being placed into the axillary vein. For some indications, it's an alternative to the peripheral insert central catheters in case of limited venous access and infusions less than one month. The Midline catheter is poorly described in scientific literature; therefore, the aim of the study is to determinate the incidence of adverse events (Infections and thrombosis) and risk factors for patients with this device.
