FAQ:

1.Is an umbilical catheter a vein or artery?
The flushed umbilical vein catheter (UVC) should be inserted into the vein. The depth of insertion should differ based on the infant's maturity. That said, it should be inserted approximately 3 to 5 cm, and 2 to 4 cm in a full-term and a premature infant, respectively, and check for blood return.

2.What is the difference between the umbilical artery and the umbilical vein?
The umbilical cord arteries and vein are unlike their counterparts in the remainder of the foetal body as the umbilical cord vein transports oxygenated blood to the foetal heart 22 while the arteries return oxygen‐depleted blood to the placenta.

3.Why are there 2 umbilical arteries?
The umbilical cord usually contains two arteries and one vein. The vein carries the oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetus. The arteries carry the deoxygenated blood and the waste products from the fetus to the placenta
