Spontaneous migration of central venous catheter tip.
A 37 year old female diagnosed as a case of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) underwent allogenic stem cell transplant. A 12.5 French triple lumen Hickman's catheter was inserted via right internal jugular vein under fluoroscopic guidance. Post insertion X-ray confirmed desired position of the catheter tip (Fig. 1). Two days post insertion she developed mild pain in the nape of neck which increased ...
متن کاملTowards Optimal Central Venous Catheter Tip Position
Central venous catheters (CVCs) are required in many critically ill patients. As with most invasive procedures, central venous catheterisation is associated with numerous potential complications, many of which stem from the access procedure. Other serious complications are related to the catheter tip position. Secondary to CVC misplacement, there is significant morbidity and mortality associate...
متن کاملBacteriological Profile and Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern of Blood Culture Isolates among Septicemia Suspected Children in Selected Hospitals Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
BACKGROUND Blood stream infections are major cause of morbidity and mortality in children in developing countries. The emerging of causative agents and resistance to various antimicrobial agents are increased from time to time. The main aim of this study was to determine the bacterial agents and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns among children suspected of having septicemia. METHODS A cro...
متن کاملSignificance of a curled central venous catheter tip.
A malpositioned central venous catheter can cause constant excessive pressure on one particular area of a central vein, thus leading to perforation and hydrothorax. The following is a case report of an iatrogenic hydrothorax caused by a malpositioned central venous catheter. The subtle sign of malposition is a slightly curled catheter tip.
متن کاملMigration of the Tip of a Central Venous Catheter
Presented here is a 47-year-old man for whom right central venous chemoport catheterization was performed without radiological guidance. Within 8 days, the catheter became nonfunctional and non-contrasted thoracic CT was performed to trace its course. The tip of the catheter appeared to have perforated the opposite wall of the ipsilateral brachiocephalic vein and entered the adjacent brachiocep...
