Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters are Witnessing Massive Adoption In Numerous Medical Procedures Including Chemotherapy
Peripherally inserted peripheral catheters (PIIC) are used in modern medical practice, particularly among critically ill patients suffering from a variety of illnesses or conditions that could potentially be life-threatening. PICCs are typically used for a variety of indications, such as total parenteral nutrition, difficult venous distribution, difficult central venous pressure, and sometimes central venous monitoring. There are several options available to a doctor when deciding which catheter is best suited to the patient.
Venapro is a medical device designed
to allow a physician to inject a controlled amount of medicine into a specific
site. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and it usually takes
about fifteen minutes. During the procedure, a thin hollow needle called a picc
line is inserted into one or more veins near the surface of the patient's body.
When a vein is blocked, the pink line is guided through the blocked vein and
injects the drug. Furthermore, In Situ Keratotomy involves the surgical removal
of a specific vessel, or vena cava, with the use of a tiny cannula. Following
the removal of the vena cava, a scar is created in the skin. This scar, called
a stroma, is closed by sutures.
A small quantity of concentrated
anesthesia is often added to the piccs for easier removal in the post-operative
stage of chemotherapy, followed by rapid recovery at home. In venous access
treatment, an artificial vein is constructed within the thigh or armpit using
sterile medical catheters and IVC tubing. A tiny pump is inserted into the
venous access hole. Once completed, a plastic ring is placed on the ring, trapping
blood inside and preventing oxygen from reaching the tumor. A disposable needle
is then inserted into the hole and the catheter is removed through the skin.
C.R. Bard and Medikit are leader providers of peripherally inserted central
catheters in Japan. Recently, B Braun launched Introcan Safety Deep Access IV
catheters to boost its peripheral intravenous PIV access.
