I can tell you that the mean time to recognize a patient needed a PICC line was superior and I am sure it remains superior at 2.7 days overall. The majority of your patients get identified in the first 72 hours of admit and the PICC line dwells for an average of 6-7 days.The patient length of stay was ten days which is on the low end for the nation by the way.t is relatively easy to look at your operational cost for insertion of a PICC (around $200-250) vs the operational cost for insertion of a PIV (around $32 to $38). If a patient has multiple sticks with a PIV it would only require about 6 sticks to equal the cost of a PICC.
