Hi All,
Here is a link to the Smith+Nephew website where several key clinicians
in vascular access designed several tools for audit in 2006.
There are charts for peripheral, central, PICCs as well as a vascular
access device selection tool and phletbitis scoring system.
These are free to downlaod in PDF format if you would like them.
I hope you find these useful.
