I wrote a Catheter Connection column in JVAD a while back about
this. It is now available on my website. Go to
www.hadawayassociates.com, click on Clinical Articles, and
locate Peripheral
Catheters Placed in Atypical Locations
Hope this helps, Lynn

Can anyone give me any references against placing a PIV in the chest or breast? I have someone doing this and I know I need references to back me up when I tell them to stop. I would appreciate the help.
