Innovative solutions: a collaborative effort of critical care oncology: the common ground of tubes and lines.
The intensive care units and the oncology units at Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center are for complex patients who require multiple and diverse venous access devices. The critical care clinical nurse specialist and the oncology/bone marrow transplant clinical nurse specialist collaborated to create a reference sheet for nurses regarding the care and maintenance of venous/arterial access devices.
