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).
A needle is used to put the catheter into a vein in your forearm or hand, and then the needle is removed, leaving the catheter in the vein with the hub outside the skin. A regular IV catheter can only stay in for a few days, at most, so if you need to be treated over weeks or months, you will need many IVs.
