Practical Considerations
- Placement generally requires central venous access, commonly through the internal jugular or femoral vein; the subclavian vein may be used selectively because of stenosis risk.
- Ultrasound and fluoroscopic or other imaging guidance may be used to place and confirm the catheter position.
- The catheter size, length, lumen configuration, and included components should be selected according to the patient, access site, prescribed blood-flow rate, and dialysis system.
- Follow the product instructions for catheter flushing, locking, dressing changes, connection to dialysis equipment, and removal.
- MRI conditions, if applicable, must be confirmed in the current product labeling; do not assume the catheter or tray is MRI safe without manufacturer documentation.
