Anybody out there using ARROW PICC Lines noticing the cm markings rubbing off after a while of the catheter being in place??? 

I have been noticing this more and more especially the ones that have been in place and especially the ones exposed to the chloraprep or adheives.

Thanks
Roger

We use the Arrow Twincath which has an external pigtail and has a 20g and
a 22g lumen.  They work great for when we need two PIV's for patients that
are on the Alcohol withdrawal pProtocol and you need two lines.

Anyone remember the name and manufacturer of the dual lumen peripheral IV
catheter from about 15 years ago? It had a blue hub on the external
pigtail.Thanks, julie
