Summary

Internal jugular vein catheters (IJVC) offer superior outcomes for apheresis compared to femoral or subclavian catheters. This study highlights IJVC as the preferred vascular access for both mid-term and long-term apheresis procedures.

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Vascular Access
  • Apheresis Procedures

Background:

  • Apheresis requires reliable vascular access.
  • Different catheter types are used, with varying complication rates.
  • Optimizing vascular access is crucial for patient safety and treatment efficacy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of different vascular access methods for apheresis.
  • To compare complication rates associated with femoral vein, subclavian vein, internal jugular vein catheters, and arteriovenous fistulas.
  • To identify the optimal vascular access for short-term, mid-term, and long-term apheresis.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of 2538 apheresis sessions in 142 patients.
  • Categorization of patients into 6 groups based on vascular access type and number of sessions.
  • Recording and comparison of adverse events: infection, clotting, and catheter dysfunction.

Main Results:

  • Internal jugular vein catheters (IJVC) showed advantages over subclavian catheters for mid-term apheresis.
  • IJVC also demonstrated benefits compared to arteriovenous fistulas for long-term apheresis.
  • Specific complication rates for each access type were analyzed across patient groups.

Conclusions:

  • Internal jugular vein catheterization is a favorable option for apheresis, particularly for mid-term treatments.
  • IJVC offers a viable alternative to arteriovenous fistulas for long-term apheresis.
  • Vascular access choice significantly impacts apheresis outcomes and complication risks.
