Introduction: Unfractionated heparin is the commonly used catheter lock solution in patients with temporary dialysis catheters as hemodialysis access. The effectiveness of trisodium citrate as an alternate catheter lock agent has not been studied in Asian population.
Methods: In this prospective quasi-experimental study, which included 180 patients with central venous dialysis catheter, patients were randomly allotted to citrate 4.
Introduction: Many techniques are available for inserting peritoneal dialysis (PD) or continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) catheters, with varying possible complications. We report a case of bladder perforation that was managed with catheter salvage.
Case Report: A 48-year-old man with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) underwent CAPD catheter placement percutaneously, with tip in the pelvis.
