Fig 1. Kaplan-Meier estimates of time to first PVC-related adverse event occurrence per event class.

Fig 1

Legend: Kaplan-Meier estimates took into account only PVCs with at least one adverse event in order to compare time according event class, including those occurred during post-removal follow-up. The blue line represents the 50% mark and the yellow line the recommended delay for routine removal of PVCs. PVC: Peripheral venous catheter; PVCAEs: PVC-related adverse events. Note: Mechanical PVCAEs could occur only during indwell only.
