Permcath Procedure

A permcath procedure, also known as a tunneled central venous catheter, is a specialized vascular access technique used for hemodialysis in patients with chronic kidney disease or kidney failure. This procedure involves the insertion of a catheter into a large vein, typically in the neck, chest, or groin area, to provide temporary or long-term access for dialysis treatments.

During the permcath procedure, the skin is numbed with local anesthesia, and a small incision is made to access the vein. The catheter is then carefully inserted into the vein and tunneled under the skin to create a stable and secure access point. Once in place, the permcath allows for the removal and return of blood during hemodialysis sessions, facilitating the efficient filtering of waste products and excess fluid from the bloodstream.
