Catheter (CVC)

How long can a catheter stay in place?

Answer

How long a catheter can stay in place depends on its type. Non-tunneled catheters are generally for short-term use, while tunneled catheters can remain longer. The aim is to switch to a permanent vascular access (fistula) whenever possible.
