Expert insertion and management of tunneled dialysis catheters for reliable hemodialysis access. Ideal for patients who need immediate dialysis or bridge access.
A tunneled dialysis catheter is a flexible tube inserted into a large vein, typically in the neck or chest. The catheter is "tunneled" under the skin before entering the vein, which helps prevent infection and keeps it secure.
These catheters provide immediate vascular access for hemodialysis when a fistula or graft isn't available or hasn't matured yet.
