متن کاملRisk of heparin lock-related bleeding when using indwelling venous catheter in haemodialysis.
BACKGROUND The indwelling venous catheter such as Dual-Cath or Twin-Cath is widely used in haemodialysis. Although the manufacturer recommends filling the catheter lumen with heparin after the dialysis session to prevent clotting, little is known about the systemic effects of such a procedure. METHODS Twenty haemodialysis patients with Dual-Cath were studied. Dialysis anticoagulation was achi...
متن کاملBronchial erosion by an indwelling central venous catheter.
Despite improved technology, central venous catheters are associated with many complications that occur usually within 48 h of placement. We report a 42-year-old man with a rare erosion of a venous catheter (Silastic) into a bronchus 2 years after its insertion.
