Trial Outcomes & Findings for Electrocardiogram (ECG) Guided Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) Placement (NCT NCT00742053)

Results Overview

In order to determine correlation of PICC tip location with the intracatheter ECG, the PICC was advanced at 1cm increments and the p-wave observed for amplitude changes.
