Over-the-needle catheters have a recommended dwell time of 72 hours, a nursing standard supported by the Infusion Nursing Standards of Practice (2006: 51S) and the CDC's Guidelines for the Prevention of Intravascular Catheter-Related Infections (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2002).
Besides chemotherapy, you can get fluids or other medications this way. For example, you might get anti-nausea medication in your IV. Your nurse usually takes out an IV catheter when the dayâs treatment ends. It might stay in for 2 or 3 days if it is safely in the vein and not causing discomfort. You get a new IV catheter each time you have treatment. If it works for your veins, you can get most chemotherapy treatments through an IV catheter.
