Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Post-insertion bleeding after PICC insertion. This will be directly observed at 24 hours after line insertion by the baby’s bedside nurse. Any evidence of bleeding will be recorded as positive post-insertion bleeding. This will be recorded on a specific trial assessment form which will be filed in the baby’s medical chart.[24 hours post PICC insertion.]

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
PICC line dislodgement. This will be assessed by review of the baby’s medical records.[This will be monitored on a weekly basis for all babies included in the study for the duration their PICC line remains in situ.];Central line associated infection. This will be assessed by the diagnosis of line infection being made by the baby’s treating medical team, on the basis of positive blood culture results.[This will be monitored on a weekly basis for all babies included in the study for the duration their PICC line remains in situ.]
