Hemodialysis Tunneled Catheter-Related Infections
Catheter-related bloodstream infections, exit-site infections, and tunnel infections are common complications related to hemodialysis central venous catheter use. The various definitions of catheter-related infections are reviewed, and various preventive strategies are discussed. Treatment options, for both empiric and definitive infections, including antibiotic locks and systemic antibiotics, ...
متن کاملHemodialysis Tunneled Catheter Noninfectious Complications
Noninfectious hemodialysis catheter complications include catheter dysfunction, catheter-related thrombus, and central vein stenosis. The definitions, causes, and treatment strategies for catheter dysfunction are reviewed below. Catheter-related thrombus is a less common but serious complication of catheters, requiring catheter removal and systemic anticoagulation. In addition, the risk factors...
متن کاملPrevention of tunneled hemodialysis catheter-related infections using catheter-restricted filling with gentamicin and citrate: a randomized controlled study.
Tunneled catheters are widely used for the provision of hemodialysis. Long-term catheter survival is limited by tunneled catheter-related infections (CRI). This study assesses the efficacy of catheter-restricted filling with gentamicin and citrate in preventing CRI in hemodialysis patients. A double-blind randomized study was conducted to compare heparin (5000 U/ml) with gentamicin/citrate (40 ...
متن کاملApproach to The Occluded Permanent Hemodialysis Catheter
Objective: Central venous catheterization (CVC) is a type of surgery that hemodialysis (HD) patients frequently undergo. Presently, permanent CVCs (pCVCs) are the alternative to vascular access for patients requiring long-term catheterization. Additionally, identification of the type of catheter has a great importance for the right intervention. Our study aims: The aim was to discuss the identi...
متن کاملMassive calcified tricuspid valve endocarditis in a patient with dual lumen tunneled venous catheter.
Infection is the most common cause of death in hemodialysis patients after cardiovascular complications. The long-term use of venous catheters for dialysis elevates the risk. Valvular calcification is of special concern in developing infective endocarditis and is often found in chronic dialysis patients. The right-sided endocarditis is rarely reported in the literature and may be overseen until...
