Portland, OR -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/15/2018 -- A short peripheral intravenous catheter(PIVC) is a thin, long tube that is used to inject fluid or medications directly into a vein of a patient. In addition, short peripheral intravenous catheters can also be used to draw blood from the same. A needle is inserted in the peripheral vein, which leaves a small tube at the insertion site. The catheter is then attached to the patients arm with the help of an adhesive tape. These peripheral catheters are made from non-irritant and medical-grade materials such as silicone or polyurethane.

The key factor that drives the growth of this market is a rise in the number of hospitalizations due to various reasons globally.
