Objective To investigate the optimal method of catheterization for lung cancer patients by comparing external jugular vein catheter,subclavian catheter,peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) and femoral catheter.Methods 275 treated with 4 types were selected this retrospective review from December 2007 to April 2013,including 38 who catheter,96 subclavian catheter,106 PICC,and 35 catheter.Success rate (one-time total),mean time,mean indwelling time,incidences catheter-related complications,and patient comfort groups compared.Results The success rates not significantly different (P =0.595) ; mean time (both P =0.000).The in PICC group was shorter than those group,subclavian =0.004,P =0.003,P =0.006),and longer other 3 =0.001,P =0.000,P =0.002).Total incidence complications during among =0.002) found correlated (r =0.318,P =0.000).Conclusions deep-vein are all mature techniques high rates.The most appropriate should be decided based on individual conditions each patient.
