Recent advances in anticancer chemotherapy have resulted in an increase in the number of patients requiring a central venous port catheter, and the incidence of catheter pinch-off syndrome has been increasing. Catheter pinch-off syndrome is a rare and unusual complication. It is difficult to retrieve dislodged catheters from the pulmonary artery, especially if the catheter is stuck to the perip...
A newly designed balloon coronary angioplasty catheter that allows passive antegrade blood flow during balloon inflation (autoperfusion catheter) was compared with a standard balloon coronary angioplasty catheter. In a randomized sequence, inflations were performed for 3 min in the left circumflex coronary artery of 12 dogs with the standard catheter followed by the autoperfusion catheter or vi...
AIM To investigate incidence, reasons, risk factors and outcomes for inappropriate use of urinary catheters in hospitalized elderly patients. METHODS The prospective study enrolled 321 patients aged 65 years and older with a urinary catheter placed within 24 h of hospitalization. Collected data included characteristics of patients and catheter use, reasons for urinary catheter use, mortality,...
To cite: Satya Prakash MVS, Lata S, Badhe ASR. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2016218340 DESCRIPTION A patient with open fracture of both bones of a leg was posted for wound debridement and external fixation. L3–L4 space was identified by the loss of resistance technique with Tuohy’s needle. An epidural catheter was passed through the Tuohy’s need...
INTRODUCTION Leakage of urine around a catheter is not uncommon in spinal cord injury patients, who have indwelling urethral catheter. Aetiological factors for leakage of urine around a catheter are bladder spasms, partial blockage of catheter, constipation, and urine infection. Usually, leakage of urine subsides when the underlying cause is treated. Leakage of urine around a suprapubic cathete...
CONTEXT Central venous catheters impregnated with chlorhexidine and silver sulfadiazine have recently been introduced for the prevention of catheter-related infections. However, there remains some uncertainty regarding the efficacy of these catheters because of conflicting reports in the literature. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of chlorhexidine-silver sulfadiazine-impregnated central ve...
T he Fogarty Arterial Embolectomy Catheter (Edwards Lifesciences LLC, Irvine, CA) introduced to vascular surgery the concept and capability of remote treatment of arterial pathology. It has become the standard for removal of peripheral emboli and thrombi since its introduction in 1963, and it has generated a variety of imitations. The parallel development of the Seldinger technique and a host o...
BACKGROUND Complications of peritoneal dialysis (PD) such as pain and catheter leakage are frequently reported. Delayed bowel perforation of a PD catheter is a rare adverse event but a serious complication associated with significant mortality. Bowel perforation of a PD catheter is difficult to differentiate from PD-related peritonitis and likely to result in a delay in diagnosis. Here, we repo...
Modified insertion of a peripherally inserted central catheter: taking the chest radiograph earlier.
Placement of the tip of a peripherally inserted central catheter in the lower third of the superior vena cava is essential to minimize the risk of complications. Sometimes, however, the catheter tip cannot be localized clearly on the chest radiograph, and repositioning a catheter at bedside is difficult, sometimes impossible. A chest radiograph obtained just after the catheter is inserted, befo...
Background: There are many methods for removal of tracheobronchial foreign bodies but there are many situations where removal of a foreign body seems impossible and may require a major surgical procedure. Familiarity with each method improves physician decision making. Case: A 17 months old baby with a history of foreign body aspiration suffered from long term pneumonia. There was a round ...
