Abstract

Current national guidelines recommend that if a central catheter is needed for dialysis treatment, contralateral placement placements should be favored over an ipsilateral position. Previous venogram studies have demonstrated a central venous stenosis incidence of about 50% in patients with central access. We set forth to delineate any clinically significant outcomes in patients with an ipsilateral or contra lateral central catheter for dialysis treatments at the time of arteriovenous graft (AVG) placement.
