NCT ID NCT06979128
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study in Poland is checking how well a specially trained nursing team can insert PICCs (a type of long-term IV line) in 200 adult patients who need them for treatments like chemotherapy or nutrition. The main goal is to see how often they succeed on the first try. It's an observational study, meaning it just watches what happens without testing a new drug or device.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that nurse-led teams can safely and effectively place PICCs, potentially improving access to this procedure.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with no new treatment, so it won't directly change patient care. Results may not apply to all hospitals or countries.
