The Medical College of Wisconsin implemented a bedside procedure service (BPS) that has been trained in the placement of PCs as an adjunct to its interventional radiology department.\nMETHODS: The data regarding consults for PC placement was collected by the BPS over a 2-year period. Primary outcomes reviewed were insertion-related complications (IRCs), unsuccessful attempts (UAs), and adverse outcomes (AOs) because the authors believe these represent the safety and effectiveness of the group. It was determined which services consulted the BPS for PC placement, the indications for consults, and a brief review of declined PC consults.\nRESULTS: Of the 124 accepted consults, the service had 3 IRCs (2.4%), 2 UAs (1.6%), and 3 AOs (2.4%). A total of 18 consults were declined. The BPS was consulted by 12 services with 8 primary reasons for PC placement.\nCONCLUSIONS: At high-volume, tertiary care centers, and with the support of cardiothoracic surgical and interventional radiology services, procedure-focused hospitalists can safely serve as an adjunct service for PC placement in selected hospitalized patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.12788\/jhm.3383","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,25]],"date-time":"2020-03-25T10:43:53Z","timestamp":1585133033000},"page":"526-530","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Two-Year Experience of 14 French Pigtail Catheters Placed by Procedure-Focused Hospitalists"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Joseph","family":"Puetz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ankur","family":"Segon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adrian","family":"Umpierrez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref0","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","unstructured":"1.
