Abstract

Central venous catheters are commonly used in renal failure for hemodialysis. One of the most common complications of central venous catheterization is catheter malposition. Before inserting a catheter procedure, risk factors that could cause malposition are well-identified and after inserting a catheter procedure chest radiograph should be perform to verify the location of the catheter. We wanted to attract attention to the catheter malpositions by presenting a seven cases with catheter malposition.

Kateter Malpozisyonları: Yedi Olgu Sunumu

Abstract

Böbrek yetmezliğinde hemodiyaliz için santral venöz kateterler sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Santral venöz kateter uygulamasının sık karşılaşılan komplikasyonlarından biri kateter malpozisyonudur. Kateter takma işlemi öncesi malpozisyona neden olabilecek risk faktörleri iyi belirlenmeli ve işlem sonrası kateterin yerini doğrulamak için akciğer filmi çekilmelidir. Biz kateter malpozisyonlu yedi olguyu sunarak kateter malpozsiyonlarına dikkat çekmek istedik.
