Percutaneously Inserted Central Catheter for Total Parenteral Nutrition in Neonates: Complications Rates Related to Upper Versus Lower Extremity Insertion

Abstract: Lower extremity percutaneously inserted central venous catheters had lower rates of catheter-related bloodstream infection, longer time to first complication, and lower cholestasis despite longer duration of total parenteral nutrition. When possible, lower extremity inserted catheters should be used for the administration of total parenteral nutrition.

“…Se ha estimado que en los niños la frecuencia de dolor y eritema es de 13,3%, edema 3,3%, pus 2% e induración 1,8 % 13 . Se informa en hospitales de USA una incidencia de ITS asociada a PICC en neonatos de 11,6% (DI 7,1 x 1 000 d/c), y en CNT en miembros inferiores de 9,3% (DI 4,8 x 1 000 d/c) 13 ; en unidades de pediatría, la densidad de incidencia de ITS asociada a CVCs temporales de 4,6 x 1 000 d/c) 14 . En Colombia las tasas de ITS son de 11 x 1 000 d/c 15 , en neonatos 3,5% y en pacientes pediátricos 2,4% 12 .…”

“…Los sitios de inserción a los cuales se atribuye mayor frecuencia de infección son los femorales y yugulares, y la menor frecuencia para los subclavios y los PICC 1,2,14 ; los PICC, se han asociado a menor riesgo que los multilúmen 1,2,16 , pero un reciente ensayo clínico se demostró que presentaban tasas similares de infección que los CNT de varios lúmenes 17 . La infección local o la fl ebitis en el sitio de entrada de los CVCs usualmente no se asocia a ITS 13 .…”

“…Central venous access devices have become vital to the recovery and survival of newborns admitted to neonatal intensive care units (NICU). In this context, the peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) or epicutaneous catheter came to address the therapeutic demands of critically ill neonates (1) .…”

“…Its findings showed a significant increase in the catheter-related bloodstream infection rates when the femoral vein was used (5) . Regarding the body segment used at a PICC insertion, a survey with 396 infants with PICC demonstrated lower rates of catheter-related bloodstream infection among catheters inserted in the lower limbs when compared to those inserted in the upper extremities (1) .…”
