The nurse provides a list of instructions to a client being discharged to home with a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC). The nurse determines that the client needs further instructions if the client made which statement?

1. "I need to wear a MedicAlert tag or bracelet."

2. "I need to restrict my activity while this catheter is in place."

3. "I need to keep the insertion site protected when in the shower or bath."

4. "I need to check the markings on the catheter each time the dressing is changed."

The correct answer is statement 2.

Explanation:

A flexible and thin tube, which is administered into the upper arms' vein and guided towards the superior vena cava is known as PICC or peripherally inserted central catheter. It has an application at the time of blood transfusions, providing intravenous fluids, at the time of chemotherapy, and for other activities.  

In the given case, it is the job of the nurse to teach the client that only minor activity limitations is needed when PICC is administered. However, one should ensure the protection of the site at the time of taking bath, should use a MedicAlert device and should look for the markings on the catheter at the time of changing dressing in order to evaluate dislodgement of the catheter.
