Development and validation of a nomogram for predicting unplanned PICC removal in preterm infants with gestational age <32 weeks
This validated nomogram, incorporating insertion site, WBC, PLT, Fib and HCA, aids early identification of high-risk infants. It offers actionable insights for optimizing PICC fixation and biochemical monitoring, potentially reducing PICC-UR in NICU.
