AB  - Intravascular  catheters  are  used  for  a  wide  range  of  adjunctive  therapies  in  pediatric  patients,  such  as  administering  total  parenteral  nutrition  and  chemotherapy  and  facilitating  blood  drawing.  For  the  purposes  of  discussing  complication  risks  and  preventive  strategies,  these  catheters  can  be  subdivided  into  short-term,  intermediate-term,  and  long-term  devices.  Approaches  to  catheter  device  placement  and  care  that  prevent  infection  are  discussed  in  Chapters  34  and  107.
