In this episode, we will be discussing Central Lines. We’ll try to hit everything about PICC lines, what they are, why we use them, and how to properly maintain them.
We will also be discussing the different veins where the central line can be inserted and the risks and complications along with it.
Another informational episode for nurses and incoming nurses as we delve into these topics.
