Longitudinal dialysis adequacy and clinical performance of the VectorFlow hemodialysis catheter: a prospective study.

CONCLUSIONS:: The VectorFlow catheter produced safe, effective hemodialysis with Kt/V ≥1.5. A single catheter occlusion occurred and a low rate of infection was seen. Results support the hypothesis that the VectorFlow design reduces thrombogenic risk during clinical performance. PMID: 28862725 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
