  schema:description "A PICC, a tunnelled line or a port is put in by a trained doctor, nurse or radiologist under local anaesthetic, using an ultrasound scan to find the vein, full sterile precautions and a check that the tip sits just above the heart before it is used. Afterwards your breathing and blood pressure are checked, and you should say if you feel short of breath or have chest pain."@en ;
