Can a drug serum level be drawn from a PICC line?

Yes, provided that you "pause" the infusion of heparin prior to taking your lab sample. Also, prior to drawing back blood from the PICC line infuse 10cc of Normal Saline and then draw off a waste of 10cc of blood. It is also suggested that you draw off another 10cc of waste blood prior to drawing the Hep APPT. Then draw your sample for the Hep APPT. There should not be any problems with the sample. Remember to do a final flush of the PICC line with 2 X 10cc of Normal Saline. Guy L Yes, provided that you "pause" the infusion of heparin prior to taking your lab sample.
