What Is A PICC Line?
It is a long, thin tube that's inserted through a vein in your arm and passed through to the larger veins near your heart.
It is generally used to give medications or liquid nutrition to a patient.
It can help prevent frequent needle sticks.
- Why Is PICC Line done?
It's used to deliver drugs and other treatments directly to large central veins near the heart.
PICC line is recommended in the following conditions;
1. Cancer treatment
- Chemotherapy is delivered through a PICC line.
2. Liquid Nutrition
- If the body can't process nutrients from food due to digestive system problems, a PICC line is recommended
3. Infection Treatment
- Antibiotics and antifungal medicines can be given through a PICC line for serious infection.
4. Other Medications
- Some medicines can irritate the small veins, and giving these treatments through the PICC line reduces that risk.
It's now more obvious than ever that Bola Ahmed Tinubu went to France for health concerns and it's really worrying.
If you're not fit enough to run for Presidency, why on earth would you want to risk your health and life to do it?
Omoh eh 😔😔😔😔
