I have some family members going through Cancer treatment at the moment. One of the things they requested was a stretchy Picc Line cover. I did some research and came up with this design.
It’s a stretchy cover that has an opening for the line to be threaded through. The lower half can then be folded up to cover the line. It is not a medical aid, it helps hold the line in place against the arm and makes it visually look a bit nicer for the patient.

Suitable for stretch knits with spandex/elastane/lycra only. Must have a high degree of stretch in at least 2 directions.
All fabrics used in these samples available for purchase at Pitt Trading.
This pattern was created to help a family member who had a line put in during treatment. I’m offering it for free to anyone it may help as I couldn’t find something suitable during my research.
I am not a doctor or a medical professional. I watched some clips of the covers and did some research and came up with this solution. It is a cover only, do not use it if it inhibits your line or treatment in any way.
If in doubt make one and show your healthcare professional before using.
