| مستخلص: | Single-lumen silastic catheters were placed in the jugular veins of 12 patients to provide vascular access for hemodialysis. In all cases construction of arteriovenous fistulas had been difficult or impossible. The catheters have provided adequate dialysis with a single needle system for periods up to 32 months. Only one case of blood stream infection occurred, in a confused patient who damaged his catheter. There has been no evidence of venous thrombosis or other complications. Jugular vein catheters should be considered as long-term alternatives when A-V fistula construction is not possible. |
