We aimed to evaluate the overall use of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) line in cancer patients, with the objective to study the demographic profile, complications, and safety related to PICC line in cancer patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Methods\u2003All the patients undergoing treatment for hematological and solid malignancies with PICC line inserted at the Healthcare Global Hospital during the study were evaluated prospectively. The complications related to PICC and its safety were analyzed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results\u2003Five hundred PICCs were inserted over a period of 2 years to 8 months for a total of 62,440 catheter days (mean of 24 days, i.e., 4.2 months, range: 1\u2013434 days). The most common indication for PICC was for delivering chemotherapy (100%). Of these, 51 (10.2%) PICCs had complications at the rate of 0.82\/1000 PICC days, and hence, 41 PICCs were removed. Hematological malignancies had more complications as compared with those with solid malignancies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusions\u2003PICCs are comparatively safe method for the central venous access in cancer patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0040-1721175","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,15]],"date-time":"2021-06-15T19:00:35Z","timestamp":1623783635000},"page":"253-256","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Analysis of Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter Line in Cancer Patients: A Single-Center Experience"],"prefix":"10.25259","volume":"09","author":[{"given":"Sulav","family":"Sapkota","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Oncology and Hematology, Healthcare Global Enterprises Limited, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raju","family":"Sannur","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Oncology and Hematology, Healthcare Global Enterprises Limited, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Radheshyam","family":"Naik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Oncology and Hematology, Healthcare Global Enterprises Limited, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"10894","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,15]]},"reference":[{"issue":"05","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"644","DOI":"10.1001\/archsurg.1975.01360110190032","article-title":"Total intravenous nutrition with peripherally inserted silicone elastomer central venous catheters","volume":"110","author":"V L Hoshal Jr","year":"1975","journal-title":"Arch Surg"},{"issue":"04","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"261","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1751-553X.2007.00931.x","article-title":"Guidelines on the insertion and management of central venous access devices in adults","volume":"29","author":"L Bishop","year":"2007","journal-title":"Int J Lab Hematol"},{"issue":"05","key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"453","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1673.2007.01870.x","article-title":"Efficacy and complications in peripherally inserted central catheter insertion: a study using 4-Fr non-valved catheters and a single infusate","volume":"51","author":"F S Chu","year":"2007","journal-title":"Australas Radiol"},{"issue":"04","key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"342","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2354.2006.00664.x","article-title":"Reducing the risk of peripherally inserted central catheter line complications in the oncology setting","volume":"15","author":"Y S Yap","year":"2006","journal-title":"Eur J Cancer Care (Engl)"},{"issue":"15","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3276","DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.2002.11.135","article-title":"Complication rates among cancer patients with peripherally inserted central catheters","volume":"20","author":"L J Walshe","year":"2002","journal-title":"J Clin Oncol"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"132","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1673.2006.01556.x","article-title":"Managing peripherally inserted central catheter-related venous thrombosis: how I do it","volume":"50","author":"I Chaitowitz","year":"2006","journal-title":"Australas Radiol"},{"issue":"10","key":"ref7","first-page":"663","article-title":"Determination of complication rate of PICC lines in oncological patients","volume":"59","author":"G Haider","year":"2009","journal-title":"J Pak Med Assoc"}],"container-title":["South Asian Journal of Cancer"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0040-1721175.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,11]],"date-time":"2026-06-11T11:12:18Z","timestamp":1781176338000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journal.sajc.org\/analysis-of-peripherally-inserted-central-catheter-line-in-cancer-patients-a-single-center-experience\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,10]]},"references-count":7,"journal-issue":{"issue":"04","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,12]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2020,10]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0040-1721175","archive":["Portico","CLOCKSS"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2278-330X","2278-4306"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2278-330X","type":"print"},{"value":"2278-4306","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,10]]}}}
