She currently is receiving TPN through a PIC line in the left basilic vein. This had been in place for about three years. Recently, it was changed from ___ due to fever and positive blood cultures. Since it was changed ___, no further fevers. She has been told that she could not get further PIC lines on the right arm.

I am a somewhat recent grad, but have been working for about 4 months. I am wondering is someone can clarify this for me?


Doc dictates:
Past medical history on the line is significant only as noted.

Would you type it as follows? And would you leave in the "is" or take it out?
