Dislocation of tunneled hemodialysis catheters is rare. This report describes displacement of a split catheter with the tip of the arterial limb outside and the venous limb inside the jugular vein. Use of the catheter with the limbs in inverse fashion caused severe hemorrhage along the catheter ...
Ultrafiltration: Conventional Hemodialysis or Hemofiltration There is extensive experience with intermittent hemodialysis techniques for fluid removal in CHF. Traditionally, acute temporary or tunneled dual-lumen catheters are inserted (see Chapter 87). Permanent access is often precluded from a cardiac stand...
Conclusion: The cost-effectiveness of Tunneled double lumen catheters and clinical benefit of reduction in patency failures and also access related infections make them the first choice for dialysis patients in majority of dialysis centers of our country but large rando...
Tunneled Double-Lumen Silicone Hemodialysis Catheter Placement in Three Patients with Permanent Pacemaker Wires: A Case Study: Permanent pacemaker wires have been described as a cause of central vein stenosis. Furthermore, in hemodialysis (HD) patients with transvenous pacemakers, permanent vascular acces...
