The Power PICC is a purple central venous catheter that has been approved by the FDA for power injection of contrast in adults and children. Refer to the marking on the hub of the catheter to determine the maximum rate of injection and to choose the correct lumen for power injection.
How long can a power PICC stay in?
A PICC can stay in your body for your entire treatment, up to 18 months. Your doctor will remove it when you don’t need it anymore. Having a PICC shouldn’t keep you from doing your normal activities, such as work, school, sexual activity, showering, and mild exercise.
