Types of Central Line Insertions

Central Line Insertion Services at Nurture Hospital:

Umbilical Line Insertion

We offer umbilical line insertion in newborns who require immediate access for medication administration, fluid therapy, or blood sampling. At Nurture Hospital, our skilled neonatal team performs umbilical line insertions with utmost care and precision.

PICC Line Insertion

A Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC line) is a long, flexible catheter inserted into a peripheral vein and advanced until the tip reaches a central vein, typically near the heart. This procedure is commonly performed at Nurture Hospital for patients requiring long-term intravenous access:

PICC lines are suitable for patients needing extended antibiotic therapy, chemotherapy, or long-term nutritional support.

Chest Tube Insertion

Chest tube insertion, also known as thoracostomy, is a procedure performed to drain fluid, blood, or air from the pleural cavity surrounding the lungs. At Nurture Hospital, our experienced surgical team conducts chest tube insertions for patients requiring:

• Emergency Management: Chest tube insertions are crucial in emergency situations such as pneumothorax (collapsed lung) or pleural effusion (fluid accumulation).

• Expert Surgical Care: Our surgeons employ advanced techniques to safely insert and manage chest tubes, promoting lung re-expansion and improving respiratory function.

• Post-Procedure Monitoring: We provide comprehensive post-procedural care, including monitoring lung function and managing drainage systems to optimize patient recovery.
