48 yr old male had quad. by-pass one month ago. is it safe to have a pic line put in so soon if at all?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is safe: Bipass surgery deals with arteries. Picc line is placed in a vein...So there is no relationship. If your doctor says that you need the picc line, you should go ahead and follow his advice.
