CVC Full Form in Medical term is Central Venous Catheter. It’s common practice to take medication by swallowing a pill, washing it down with water, and continuing on with your day. However, there will be times when your doctor will need to inject medicine or fluids directly into a vein.
A standard intravenous (IV) tube is what you’ll get if you require it temporarily, such when you’re recovering from surgery. It’s roughly one inch in length and quite thin. It is inserted into the arm or hand. However, central venous catheter may be inserted if you require ongoing medical attention for more than that amount of time. It is also known as the middle line.
A central venous catheter (CVC) is a tiny tube similar to an IV, however it is much longer. It’s usually inserted into a major vein in the chest or arm.
The main benefit of CVCs is that, depending on the type, they can remain implanted for a long period of time. That can be very convenient for long-term treatment.
Repeated use of needles or a standard intravenous line might weaken or even destroy veins. Needles are a pain, and getting jabbed with them all the time can get old fast. And if you’re getting a lot of medication through an IV, one can experience some discomfort each time.
