Susan -- As a manufacturer, we can
tell you exactly what brand and size catheter the lot number represents.
I'm sure it is the same for Bard, Arrow, AngioDynamics, etc., but will let them
confirm.

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!
