  schema:description "A midline is a longer drip tube put into a vein in the upper arm, with its tip still in the arm rather than near the heart. It avoids repeated needles, and it carries fewer bloodstream infections than a PICC. Whether it is safe for chemotherapy that can damage tissue if it leaks has not been settled."@en ;
