(PVC), also known as a [[peripheral venous line]] or [[peripheral venous access catheter]], is a [[catheter]] (tube) that is inserted into a [[vein]] in the [[peripheral vascular system]] to administer [[medication]] or fluids. <br /> <br /> ==Overview==<br /> The peripheral venous catheter is the most commonly used [[vascular access]] in medicine. It is given to most [[emergency department]] and [[surgical]] patients, and before some [[radiology]] procedures. The catheter is inserted into a small peripheral vein, such as the veins in the hand or forearm, and then connected to a bag containing the fluids or medication.<br /> <br /> ==Procedure==<br /> The procedure to insert a peripheral venous catheter involves several steps. First, the skin is cleaned with an [[antiseptic]] to prevent [[infection]]. Then, a tourniquet is applied to the upper arm to increase the pressure in the veins in the lower arm, making them easier to find. The catheter is then inserted into the vein and the tourniquet is removed. The catheter is then connected to a bag containing the fluids or medication.<br /> <br /> ==Complications==<br /> Complications of peripheral venous catheter use can include [[phlebitis]], [[infection]], and [[thrombosis]]. Phlebitis, or inflammation of the vein, can occur from the catheter irritating the vein. Infection can occur if bacteria enter the body through the catheter. Thrombosis, or a blood clot, can form if the blood flow around the catheter is slow.<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> * [[Central venous catheter]]<br /> * [[Intravenous therapy]]<br /> * [[Cannula]]<br /> * [[Venipuncture]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Medical treatments]]<br /> [[Category:Medical equipment]]<br /> [[Category:Emergency medical procedures]]<br /> [[Category:Medical terminology]]<br /> <br /> {{stub}}</div> Prab
