Vascular Access Procedures at City Dialysis
Vascular Access Procedures are essential for patients requiring immediate dialysis access. These procedures involve the placement of central lines and femoral catheters, providing quick and reliable access to the bloodstream for dialysis treatments. At City Dialysis Centre, we have extensive experience in performing vascular access procedures, ensuring that patients receive timely and effective care.
We have successfully performed more than 1,000 central line and femoral Permcath catheter placements, establishing our expertise in this critical area of nephrology. Our dedicated medical team, led by skilled surgeons and nephrologists, ensures that each procedure is carried out with precision and care, prioritizing patient safety and comfort.
Our Vascular Access Procedure Process
1. Initial Assessment: Before proceeding with a vascular access procedure, our medical team conducts a comprehensive assessment of your health condition. This includes reviewing your medical history, current health status, and any specific requirements for dialysis access. Our goal is to determine the most suitable type of access for your needs.
2. Central Line Placement: Central lines are typically placed in a large vein in the neck, chest, or groin. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and our experienced surgeons ensure precise placement to facilitate immediate dialysis access. Central lines provide a temporary solution while a more permanent access, such as an AV fistula, is being prepared.
3. Femoral Permcath Catheter Placement: Femoral Permcath catheters are inserted into the femoral vein in the thigh. This procedure is also performed under local anesthesia and is often used for short-term dialysis access. Our team ensures that the catheter is securely placed and that the patient is comfortable throughout the procedure.
4. Post-Procedure Care: After the placement of a central line or femoral catheter, our team provides detailed instructions on how to care for the access site. We offer guidance on monitoring for signs of infection or complications and schedule follow-up appointments to check the status of the access.
4. Transition to Permanent Access: While central lines and femoral catheters provide immediate dialysis access, they are typically temporary solutions. Our team works with you to plan and transition to a more permanent access, such as an AV fistula or graft, ensuring continuity of care and long-term dialysis management.
