Previous studies have found that the insertion tip position of peripherally indwelling central venous catheters (PICCs) depends on the position of the upper limb and respiration, but no studies have been conducted in Japanese adults. The optimal position of the tip of the PICC is often discussed because the PICC is considered to be a central venous catheter (CVC), and there are still differences of opinion in articles and guidelines, including whether PICCs, which strictly speaking have different purposes and structures, should have the same optimal tip position as CVCs. The issue is still controversial, with differing opinions in papers and guidelines.
In this study, we investigated the upper limb position and respiratory variability of the PICC insertion tip position in Japanese adults to identify PICC tip position variability specific to Japanese adults, which may serve as a reference limb position and respiratory phase when determining the optimal PICC insertion tip position in Japanese adults. The results of this study are as follows.

The study was performed in the fluoroscopy room by a nurse practitioner (NP) who was authorized by the medical safety committee of the Nurse Practitioner (NP) office to insert a PICC alone under the direction of a physician, between the date of approval by the ethics review committee of his/her institution and 31 March 2026, for each of the following patients Data on the variation of the PICC insertion tip position according to upper limb position and respiratory phase will be collected in Japanese adult patients with PICC (Groshong Catheter) insertion from the right upper limb, who agreed to the study and were requested by a physician in the department of medicine.
