Central Line Care: Dressing Change

Описание к видео Central Line Care: Dressing Change

A central line is a type of IV that is inserted into a large vein to carry fluids through a thin tube up near the heart. Many people have central lines during cancer treatment. If you need a central line, your cancer care team will teach you how to care for it at home. This video will show you how to change the dressing that covers your tunneled catheter (or Hickman line). Your dressing should be changed at least every 7 days. If your dressing gets wet or becomes loose, it should be changed immediately. Please contact your cancer care team with any questions.
