Placement of a Subclavian Tunneled Hemodialysis Catheter with the Patient’s Arm Raised May Reduce the Risk of Complications: Two Cases Report

Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, 2023
The subclavian vein is an uncommon route for tunneled hemodialysis catheter (tHDC) placement because of its potency for future dialysis access. However, when favored access routes have been exhausted because of repeated catheterization or limited life ...

Immediate access arteriovenous grafts versus tunnelled central venous catheters: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial [PDF]

, 2015
Background Autologous arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) are the optimal form of vascular access for haemodialysis. AVFs typically require 6 to 8 weeks to “mature” from the time of surgery before they can be cannulated.
