picc contraindications for arms that are post-op (hand) & infected?

This may seem like common sence to most, but I would LOVE any links to documentation on not inserting picc lines in arms that have had surgery on infected wounds. 

The Virchow's triad covers most of it, but does anyone know of any articles or standards to justify excluding these arms from picc insertions?
