A PICC catheter maintenance network was established and managed to monitor the maintenance of catheters in placed patients throughout the process, providing homogeneous PICC catheter continuity of care for patients. Model-driven thinking is an idea for simulation system development. Model-driven architecture (MDA) is a design methodology that implements model-driven thinking and is widely used in simulation system development. Based on the requirements of nursing, the data-driven model is mainly divided into interface layer and functional service layer; this study adopts MDA technology which can detach the functions of the system from the platform, based on domain knowledge, and the metamodel adopts XSD-based data model to generate the PIM model, which is stored in the model library. The results showed that the number of nurses at maintenance sites increased from 79 to 232, the PICC placement rate for oncology patients increased from 35.0% to 76.0%, the nurse maintenance operation pass rate increased from 53.9% to 88.4%, and the maintenance default rate decreased from 40.0% to 10.9%.
