Question A male patient is to receive a percutaneously inserted central catheter (PICC). He asks the nurse whether the insertion will hurt. How will the nurse reply? • A. “You will have general anesthesia so you won’t feel anything.” • B. “It will be inserted rapidly, and any discomfort is fleeting.” • C. “The insertion site will be anesthetized. Threading the catheter through the vein is not painful.” Correct Answer: C. “The insertion site will be anesthetized. Threading the catheter through the vein is not painful.” Pain related to PICC insertion occurs with the puncture of the skin. When inserting PICC lines, the insertion site is anesthetized so no pain is felt. Unnecessary pain should be prevented. Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) are a subset of central venous catheters. They are 50 cm to 60 cm long single, double or triple lumen catheters that are placed in a peripheral arm vein and terminate in the thorax. They can be used for medium-term venous access, which is defined as anywhere between several weeks to 6 months. •
