The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the difference between LPC (mini-midline) and PIVC (peripheral venous catheter) on the need of further venipuncture for blood withdrawal or placement of a new vascular access. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Whether the number of patients with LPC and PIVC differ in terms of repeated venipunctures; * Whether the number of patients with LPC and PIVC differ in terms of adverse events associated with the use of such vascular catheters. Researchers will compare the proportion of patients with repeated venipunctures between LPC and PIVC arms.
