Association between different peritoneal dialysis catheter placement methods and short‐term postoperative complications
BMC Nephrology Apr 30, 2021
Ma Y, Liu S, Yang M, et al. - Researchers modified the Seldinger technique to examine the link between different catheter placement methods of peritoneal dialysis and short-term postoperative complications in this study. In this retrospective analysis, 157 patients who underwent peritoneal dialysis were split into three groups: 111 cases of open surgery technique, 23 cases of Seldinger technique, and 23 cases of modified Seldinger technique (ultrasound-guided Veress needle puncture). Findings revealed that a significant reduction in catheter-related short-term complications post-peritoneal dialysis can be conferred by Modified Seldinger technique, and it showed effectiveness particularly in decreasing the incidence of catheter migration. The results of this study show the safety as well as the feasibility of Modified Seldinger technique as a method for the placement of a peritoneal dialysis catheter.
