Peripherally Inserted Versus Centrally Inserted Central Venous Catheters in the Neurological Intensive Care

A Phase III Study of Peripherally Inserted Versus Centrally Inserted Central Venous Catheters in the Neurological Intensive Care Unit

• Status: Completed
• Phase: Phase 3
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 80 (actual)
