Vascular Access

Vascular access procedures are often needed when patients need medication infusion such as antibiotics, chemotherapy, dialysis, hyperalimentation for feeding and frequent blood tests. This vascular access provides fast, easy access to the venous system for treatment, very low infection rates and elimination of repeat needle sticks. This procedure involves the insertion of a flexible and sterile thin plastic tube, or catheter, into a blood vessel to provide an effective method of drawing blood or delivering medications and nutrients into a patient's bloodstream over a period of weeks, months or even years. The catheter may be tunneled partially or implanted completely beneath the skin to decrease the risk of infection.
