Yes, we do document in the patient's chart in the PICC insertion record. We also document in our Palm outcomes program, so that we can look it up in seconds.

Subject: Lot number documentation
Several questions regarding lot numbers of PICC lines.
1--Are you documenting these in patient records?
2--Do you have a method to retrieve the numbers in the event of a recall ?(god forbid) So you know which patients are affected?
3--MANUFACTURERS--If I had just the lot number of a PICC, could you tell me the type and size etc of the catheter?
Thanks in advance!
