"The modified two-stage technique appears to be a feasible alternative to conventional PICC placement and was associated with reduced insertion-related bleeding in ICU patients. The technique also resulted in fewer dressing changes within 24 h, suggesting more stable haemostasis and potential improvements in ICU care quality" Young et al (2025).
