Randomized trial compares complications of ultrasound-guided tunneled dialysis catheter insertion with and without fluoroscopy, highlighting procedural safety.
Fluoroscopy is considered to be the gold standard and an essential requirement for catheter insertion. However, there is a paucity of data regarding the outcomes in ultrasound (USG)-guided insertion with and without fluoroscopy. We compared the complications of USG-guided tunneled dialysis catheter (TDC) insertion with and without fluoroscopy assistance.
