Notes:

Use this code for tunneled lines only which are usually inserted for longterm use . We don't put this code in for regular central line insertion or vascath insertion.The device study will be used for ICU central lines once the study starts.

• • So I can use this code for any vascular access device like a port a cath?
• I would say yes Shirley-it is tunneled and needs a surgical removal.-Lou
