Long peripheral catheters are 6-15 cm peripheral dwelling catheters that are inserted via a catheter-over-needle or direct Seldinger (catheter-over-guidewire) technique. When inserted in the upper extremity, the distal tip terminates before reaching the axilla, typically no further than the mid-upper arm. This is distinct from a midline catheter, which is inserted via a modified Seldinger technique and terminates at the axilla.

Background: Infections are common complications of neonatal long lines. Heparin has been shown to prolong the effective duration of neonatal long lines and to reduce the ability of bacteria to adhere to foreign surfaces, but the effect of heparin on rates of infection is uncertain.
Objective: The goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of heparin on the frequency of episodes of catheter-related sepsis (CRS) in infants receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN) through a neonatal long line.

Objective: The purpose of this study was: 1) to evaluate the role of the pediatric emergency department (PED) in placing peripherally inserted midline or central catheters (long lines), and 2) to review indications and complications to use this technology to reduce the number and duration of admissions and provide an alternative method for administering intravenous therapy.
Methods: Retrospective chart review of all patients taken from a procedure log who had long lines placed in the emergency department of a children's hospital.
Results: Twenty-eight patients had 30 long line insertions over a 36-month period.
