Comparing the early function and complications between fluoroscopic guidance and blindly insertion of permanent hemodialysis catheter
Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complicated kidney defect causing permanent failure in renal function in progressive stages. Hemodialysis is the most accepted treatment to maintain body’s fluid/electrolyte homeostasis at the terminal stages of the disease. Permanent hemodialysis catheter (permicath) may be inserted blindly or by fluoroscopic guidance. This study aimed to compare th...

متن کاملThe Impact of Intraluminal Vancomycin Adminstration on Prevention of Hemodialysis CatheterRelated Infections
Introduction: Percutaneously inserted double-lumen central venous hemodialysis catheters provide the nephrologist with an excellent temporary access for an immediate hemodialysis treatment and preserve the peripheral veins for the future creation of a permanent arteriovenous vascular access. Unfortunately catheterrelated infections are usually common. In this study, the impact of intra luminal ...
متن کاملMeta-analysis: antibiotics for prophylaxis against hemodialysis catheter-related infections.
BACKGROUND Catheter-related infections cause morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis. PURPOSE To examine whether topical or intraluminal antibiotics reduce catheter-related bloodstream infection compared with no antibiotic therapy in adults undergoing hemodialysis. DATA SOURCES Electronic databases, trial registries, bibliographies, and conference proceedings up to Octob...
