Pilot Study on the Effectiveness of Novel Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) Securement Dressing in Preventing PICC Dislodgement
Sponsor: Changi General Hospital
Summary
Evidence regarding clinical effectiveness and acceptability of PICC sleeves remain limited. Few randomised controlled trials have evaluated PICC sleeves in routine hospital practice, and there is limited evidence regarding their feasibility, safety and influence on line condition. This pilot randomised controlled trial aims to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and user experience of a protective PICC sleeve among hospitalised patients with PICCs.
