ABSTRACT
Peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) insertion is a routine procedure in the neonatal intensive care unit required for prolonged intravenous fluid, nutrition and medication support. Neonatal cardiac tamponade is a serious and rare complication of PICC line insertion. Early detection by point of care ultrasound (POCUS) and management by pericardiocentesis improves the chances of survival. Regular simulation-based training sessions on a mannequin, along with knowledge of POCUS, can assist neonatologists and paediatricians for a quick and appropriate response in this emergency condition.
