Overview

Brief Summary

Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) are increasingly used in intensive care unit (ICU) as an alternative to centrally inserted central catheters (CICCs) for intravenous infusion. In the present study we try to assess their reliability for measuring cardiac index (CI) with trans-pulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) technique.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

•adult patients (≥18 years) admitted to the ICU
•Patients requiring hemodynamic monitoring using EV1000TM
•Patients having both PICC and CICC in place (these patients had their PICC replaced with a CICC, usually at the time of ICU admission, or vice versa, usually at the end of their ICU stay, and were enrolled immediately after the placement of the new device before the previous one was removed)
