What are the types of Dialysis Access?
- Arteriovenous Fistula – Native and Prosthetic Graft
- Catheter – Temporary jugular line and Permanent Catheter (Perm cath)
- Peritoneal Dialysis
What is Arterio-Venous Fistula (AVF)?
Before beginning dialysis, your kidney specialist may recommend you have a procedure to create a “Fistula”. This is a surgically created vein to allow waste products to be removed from the bloodstream when the kidneys are failing. This dialysis machine acts as an artificial kidney and returns clean blood through the same vein.
There are several benefits of a fistula:
- The high rate of blood flow through the surgical vein allows the blood to be exchanged quickly
- The fistula can be accessed as many times as needed
- There is a lower chance of infection, particularly when using your own vein
- Lasts longer than many other forms of dialysis
How is the fistula created?
The vessels on your arms and sometimes legs will be assessed by ultrasound so your surgeon can find the best location for your fistula.
The procedure can often be performed under local anaesthetic or by numbing the nerves to the area. The artery (takes blood from the heart) and vein (takes blood back to the heart) will be joined at the site chosen. This allows the high blood flow to be redirected to the fistula vein to be dialyzed. The procedure is often performed as day surgery.
What is Arteriovenous (AV) Graft?
AV graft is an option for patients whose veins are very small and most likely won’t mature into a working fistula. A surgeon will connect a soft, biocompatible flexible tube between an artery and a vein beneath your skin.
What is a Temporary line or Jugular line for Dialysis?
Because an AV fistula needs time to mature, it is not an option for someone who needs to start hemodialysis right away. If you need to start hemodialysis urgently, your only option is a CVC to begin treatment. An AV fistula can be created and given time to mature while a CVC is being used.
It is a double-lumen tube placed in the neck via. Internal jugular vein mostly.
What is Permanent Catheter (Perm Cath) for Dialysis?
Perm cath is a double tube placed via. IJV or subclavian or Brachiocephlic vein and tunneled under the skin on the anterior chest wall. It can sometimes be placed even in the groin or hepatic or IVC if required.
This allows immediate access to your blood for hemodialysis without waiting for an AV fistula to mature or for an AV graft to heal. A CVC stays in place for repeated use instead of being inserted with each dialysis session.
What is Peritoneal Dialysis (PD)?
Peritoneal dialysis is a type of dialysis that uses the lining of your abdomen, or belly, to filter your blood inside your body.
What is Chemoport or Portacath?
People who require regular access to their veins for treatment may be offered a procedure to insert a Portacath or Chemoport tube.
Doctors often recommend this type of device for patients who regularly have:
- Chemotherapy treatments
- Infusions of antibiotics or other medications
- Nutritional supplements
What is PICC Line?
A peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC), also called a PICC line, is a long, thin tube that’s inserted through a vein in your arm and passed through to the larger veins near your heart.
Doctors often recommend this type of device for patients who regularly have:
- Chemotherapy treatments
- Infusions of antibiotics or other medications
- Nutritional supplements
What is the Cost Vascular Access or Dialysis Access?
