To investigate the value of color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) in monitoring peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) for cancer patients.
Methods:
A total of 116 cancer patients who need PICC were randomly and equally divided into CDFI group and control group. The success rate of the first operation
procedure time and reoperation rate after X-ray between the two groups were compared.
Results:
The success rates of the first operation
procedure time and reoperation rates in CDFI group and control group were 98.21% (55/56) vs. 85.71% (48/56)
(5.642.44) min vs. (7.826.90) min
0 vs. 10.71% (6/56)
respectively (

Conclusion:
PICC with CDFI monitoring could significantly improve the success rate of the first operation
decrease procedure time and reoperation rate. CDFI monitoring plays an important role in clinical application.
