Abstract
Now, we made a new wearable catheter as temporary access, made of heparin coated polyurethan.
The catheter is eleastic and excellent in anticoagulation.
We catheterizated the catheter not only into femoral vein in 133 cases, but also into subclavian vein in 39 cases.
The following is advantages of the catheter:
1) Made of a new antithrombogenic elastomer 2) Rapidly and easily implantable
3) No surgically framed personnel
4) No immobilization of patients
5) Low trouable rates
6) CVF can be measured.
7) 300ml per minute of the maximum blood flow rate can be gained
8) No use of conventional shunt areas.
