PY - 2017 T2 - Comprehensive Pediatric Hospital Medicine, 2e AB - Many pediatric patients will need some form of vascular access during their initial evaluation or hospitalization. The child’s severity of illness or injury, type of infusion needed, duration of therapy, and skill of the provider will often determine the type of line selected. Ultrasound-guided vascular access is an important advance in safety and efficacy and is discussed in a separate chapter. This chapter reviews the insertion and monitoring needed for peripheral intravenous access, central venous access, and peripherally-inserted central catheters (PICC lines).
