Compared with central venous catheters, hospitalists felt that PICCs were safer to insert (81%) and preferred by patients (74%). Although 84% of respondents reported that placing a PICC solely to obtain venous access was appropriate, 47% also indicated that 10%\u201325% of PICCs inserted in their hospitals might represent inappropriate placement. Hospitalist knowledge regarding PICC\u2010related venous thromboembolism was poor, with only 4% recognizing that PICC\u2010tip verification was performed principally to prevent thrombosis. Furthermore, several potential practice\u2010related concerns were identified: one\u2010third of hospitalists indicated that they never examine PICCs for externally evident problems, such as exit\u2010site infection; 48% responded that once inserted, they did not remove PICCs until a patient was ready for discharge; and 51% admitted that, at least once, they had \u201cforgotten\u201d that their patient had a PICC.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title><jats:p>Hospitalist experiences, practice, opinions, and knowledge related to PICCs appear to be variable. Because PICC use is growing and is often associated with complications, examining the impact of such variation is necessary. Hospitals and health systems should consider developing and implementing mechanisms to monitor PICC use and adverse events. <jats:italic>Journal of Hospital Medicine<\/jats:italic>
