PICC- Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter
Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) is a long, narrow tube (catheter) about the same size as a strand of long spaghetti. It is used to give you medication directly into your blood stream without having to repeatedly insert a needle into your vein. Using ultrasound as a guide the needle will be inserted into your vein.
