Guest guest Posted October 25, 2002 Report Share Posted October 25, 2002 I had a groshong catheter and it was put in in a small surgery procedure and that is about all I know. The nurses told me it was really close , if not next to the heart and I could keep it in for a long , long time, if I had to It is a bigger line and so they could put the TPN in it, which is food. I had one and got infection in it and had to have it out and a new one put in. I think the infection was my own fault , as I was home on " home health " but got the end of the line in the bath water.
