Permcath Insertion for Long-Term Dialysis
Permcath, a tunneled central venous catheter, is used for long-term hemodialysis in patients who cannot undergo AV fistula or graft procedures. It provides direct access to large central veins with reduced infection risk and improved comfort compared to temporary catheters. It's an essential option for patients needing immediate or extended dialysis access.

How We Perform Permcath Insertion
Imaging-Guided Access
We use ultrasound and fluoroscopy to ensure precise entry into the central vein with minimal trauma.
Tunneling Technique
The catheter is tunneled under the skin to reduce infection risk and improve long-term stability and patient comfort.
Secure Connection
The catheter is anchored and tested to ensure secure blood flow for immediate dialysis use if required.
Post-Procedure Care
We provide detailed care instructions, flushing protocols, and follow-ups to ensure catheter function and prevent infections.
Long-Term Monitoring
We regularly evaluate catheter performance and manage any complications like blockage or dislodgement promptly.
