For patients referred for peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs), the risk for device failure is not lower with ...

FRIDAY, Dec. 20, 2024 (HealthDay News) -- Similar postinsertion complication and technical survival rates are seen with single- and double-purse-string suture catheter insertion methods for ...

with 10 cases resolved through irrigation and 2 cases requiring additional catheters insertion by suprapubic bladder punctures. In Group B, only 4 cases experienced catheter obstruction, which were ...

catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) are a troublesome and potentially major complication. The main risk factors predisposing to CAUTI associated with CISC are poor patient compliance ...

We aimed to compare long term suprapubic catheter (SPC) drainage vs Mitrofanoff conduit ... and only further operations were counted as complication events. For Mitrofanoffs, any subsequent operation ...
