The Lifecath PICC Easy has three catheter sizes available (3Fr, 4Fr, 5Fr).

It is inserted in paediatric or adult patients using the modified Seldinger technique with the micro-invasive accessories.

It’s a single lumen peripherally inserted for central venous catheter in BIOSTABLE POLYURETHANE for mid to long-term central venous access, the length of which can be adjusted by the physician at its proximal end.

Advantages of PICC lines:

• Avoid repeated and painful venipunctures with I.V. cannulae and the trauma associated with these punctures, as well as damage and loss of peripheral veins.
• Peripheral insertion of a central venous catheter reduces potential risks in comparison to jugular or subclavian insertion (pneumothorax, haemothorax, arterial puncture, pinch-off syndrome in a clavicular approach, air embolism, etc…).
• The catheter can be used with outpatients, for long-term therapies delivered at home.
