For patients with chronic kidney disease or kidney failure dialysis is the only other option after kidney transplant. However, there are some patients who are not fit for fistula creation or need emergency dialysis. Permcath is solution for these patients. A permcath procedure is also known as a tunneled central venous catheter. It is a specialized vascular access technique used for hemodialysis in patients with chronic kidney disease or kidney failure. This procedure involves the insertion of a catheter into a large vein, typically in the neck, chest, or groin area to provide temporary or long-term access for dialysis treatments.
There are two kinds of permacaths: cuffed and uncuffed. Because of the higher risk of infection, a catheter without a cuff is only meant for short-term use. The cuffed catheter is intended to be used long-term and likely permanently.
During the permcath procedure the skin is numbed with local anesthesia. A small incision is made to access the vein. The catheter is then carefully inserted into the vein and tunneled under the skin to create a stable and secure access point. Once the cathere is in place the permcath allows for the removal and return of blood during hemodialysis sessions, facilitating the efficient filtering of waste products and excess fluid from the bloodstream.
After your permacath is in place, you must take proper care of it to avoid the risk of complications and infections. They can be used for several medical procedures, such as administering medicines and apheresis, which is a technique for separating donated blood components to address illnesses such as leukemia, sickle cell disease, and other ailments. .
