Blood pressure should not be taken on the arm with a PICC, which is a problem if there are reasons not to take pressure on the other arm, such as a dialysis shunt, absence, cast, infection, lymph node removal, etc. Blood pressure readings on legs are often 10â20% higher than those on the brachial artery.
