What Is A Central Venous Catheter(CVC)?

 

When the average patient needs to take a medication, the process is usually completed by simply putting a pill in their mouth and drinking some water.

 

But when a patient is recovering from surgery and needs longer care, how do they follow up with rehabilitation? Intravenous delivery of medications or fluids is one of the common forms of medical treatment, and it's times like these that you may learn about central venous catheter placement.

 

What Is Central Venous Catheter?

 

A central venous catheter(CVC ) is a thin, long, flexible catheter that is usually longer than a regular IV. It usually goes into a large vein in the patient's arm or chest. Some patients receive several time treatments through this catheter.

 

A central venous catheter kit is a device that doctors place in a large vein in the neck, chest, or arm to deliver fluids, blood, nutrients, medications or to perform quick medical tests and treatments. Central venous catheter set are important in the treatment of many diseases, especially in intensive care units.

 

A thin, flexible catheter is inserted into a vein, usually below the clavicle, and the catheter is passed through this vein until it reaches a large vein near the heart. A central venous catheter can be left in place for several weeks or longer, which helps avoid repeated needle sticks by the patient.

When Is Central Venous Catheter Placement Required?

 

The key to CVC insertion is that they can stay in place for weeks and more (depending on the type of CVC kit in the different centers).

Central venous catheter insertion can make long-term patient care easier and can reduce patient pain to some extent.

 

A central venous catheter is placed for a longer period of time than an intravenous catheter (IV), which injects medication into a vein near the surface of the skin. A central venous catheter allows the patient to receive intravenous medications.

 

A central venous catheter kit can help patients avoid these problems if they receive needles or regular IVs over and over again.
