PICC Tip Calculator

About

PICC Tip Calculator is a reference aid for clinicians placing PICC lines. It estimates an insertion length from the surface measurements you take and gives you a malposition-prevention checklist to work through. Measure along the planned vein path, choose the insertion side and vein (basilic, cephalic, or brachial), enter the segments, and the app sums them into an estimated length with a left-side adjustment note. The checklist walks the best-practice steps from vein selection through tip confirmation and documentation. This is an educational tool, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, or confirm placement. Always confirm catheter tip position by chest x-ray, ECG-guided confirmation, or your facility's protocol before use. It does not replace clinical judgment, training, or institutional policy. Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign up, no patient data collected.
