 The study medication, heparin, will be mixed by the pharmacy at a standard dose of 0.5 unitsmL for the intravenous infusions used in the heparin group. The experimental group will receive only the base solution, whether it is 5 dextrose, 0.9 sodium chloride, or total parenteral nutrition infused into the PICC line. Pharmacy and the NICU staff will ensure compatibility of heparin with other infusions. Heparin bonded catheters, heparin flushes, and hep-lock solutions are not used by the NICU service.
