To my knowledge, no such studies has been done. I would not look for
one either since midclavicular is not recommended due to previous
studies. There can be problems with midlines when they are chosen
inappropriately. Midlines can not replace a central line. Lynn

Have there been any studies that show thrombosis from midlines
that are placed? I have concerns about midlines because I have
seen many problems associated with them including thrombus. I
would love to see a study that compares midline to Midclavicular
in terms of thrombus formation. Patty
