LEARNING FROM IMAGES Subclavian or Internal Jugular Tunneled Dialysis Catheter: Can we Divulge the Location?
A reliable and safe vascular access is critical for providing life sustaining hemodialysis therapy to patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). Although a permanent arteriovenous access such as an arteriovenous fistula or arteriovenous graft is preferred, the United States Renal Data System (USRDS) data reports that nearly 80 percent of incident hemodialysis patients initiate treatment with...
متن کاملDialysis catheter malfunction
Vascular access is a crucial factor in the treatment of hemodialysis patients. Dialysis catheters are associated with higher mortality than fistulas, meaning they should be the last choice for most patients. Although they have many drawbacks, catheters play an important role in providing a reliable vascular access in some patients. Dialysis catheter dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity. Ea...
متن کاملPeritoneal Dialysis Catheter Placement Techniques
The success of catheter placement is critically important for the ability to stay on peritoneal dialysis over the long-term. Nephrologists have used percutaneous placement with or without fluoroscopic guidance and placement using peritoneoscopic guidance to place these catheters. Complications can be divided into early, within 14 days, and late complications, those arising more that 14 days aft...
متن کاملPrevention of dialysis catheter infection
a. We recommend application of either topical agents or intraluminal lock solutions in reduction of exit-site infection and catheter-related bacteraemia. Options of topical agents include mupirocin 2% ointment, polysporin and medihoney. Intraluminal lock agents include both antibiotic based and non-antibiotic-based solutions. Ideal antibiotics and optimal doses are yet to be defined. (Level 1 e...
متن کاملSimultaneous peritoneal dialysis catheter insertion and removal in catheter-related infections without interruption of peritoneal dialysis.
Catheter-related infections result in high patient morbidity, the need for temporary haemodialysis, and high costs. These infections are the main cause of limited technique survival in peritoneal dialysis. We introduced a protocol for the simultaneous peritoneoscopic insertion and removal of peritoneal catheters in patients with catheter-related infections. Peritoneal dialysis was continued the...
