Stiffness of Central Venous Catheters

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 1983
Catheter stiffness has been suggested to be a principal factor in the thrombogenesis encountered after central venous cannulation. However, no data have been published to date about the stiffness of central venous catheters. A method for measuring catheter stiffness has been developed.

Central Venous Catheter Access

Nutrition, 1998
Central venous access for the purpose of supplying parenteral nutrition to the pediatric age group requires a careful definition of the patient's caloric need, estimated duration of therapy, and an assessment of available sites. Peripheral vein parenteral nutrition is limited by caloric density of the nutrient fluids, while peripherally inserted ...

Complications of central venous catheters

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2001
Central vein catheterization is frequently employed for monitoring, administration of drugs and parenteral nutrition in a variety of medical and surgical illnesses. Despite the widespread use of central vein access, both catheter-related infections and mechanical complications remain unacceptably common.

MALPOSITIONING OF CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETERS

The Lancet, 1972
Abstract Of 73 central venous catheters, thought to be correctly positioned on clinical criteria, only 64% were in an acceptable position radiologically. If the risk of complications from malpositioned catheters is to be reduced X-ray checks should be routine.
