Brief Summary
Most important peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) and Midline complications are thrombosis and catheter related blood stream infections. No large prospective observational study are present in literature about these topics. The aim of this multicenter prospective observational study is to analyze all the complications due to PICC and Midline insertion.

Eligibility Criteria
The study will be conducted in all the patients undergoing PICC or Midline catheter insertion which fall in the inclusion criteria
You may qualify if:
- all patients aged 18-90 years (oncological, malignancy hematology, medical, surgical and critically ICU patients) in whom it was determined that PICC/Midline insertion was indicated.
You may not qualify if:
- renal insufficiency whose creatinine level was greater than 3.0 mg/dL or who were undergoing hemodialysis,
- preexisting bacteremia (ie, existing positive blood cultures that had not been repeated with negative results);
- preexisting venous thrombosis or known hypercoagulable states (such as protein C or S deficiency, Antithrombin deficiency, lupus anticoagulant);
- axillary lymphonodi dissection or alteration of lymphatic drainage;
- PICC and/or Midline insertion in a paretic arm;
- patients who had been previously enrolled in the trial.
