Abstract

Successful long-term central venous access is a complex subject. The concept of "long term" implies that continued surveillance will be required. This also requires the catheter to be placed, initially, in its best configuration. To achieve long-term performance and durability, a thorough understanding of all aspects related to the catheter, catheter placement, and catheter maintenance is essential.
