Dialysis

Ultrasound-Guided Dialysis (English Only)

Ultrasound-Guidance for Dialysis Cannulation

Temps du cours: 3h 11min

Point-of-care ultrasound is a powerful tool for cannulation. As the demographic of the average hemodialysis patient changes, the prevalence of difficult to cannulate vascular accesses increases. This course describes the technique of dialysis cannulation from equipment set-up, patient positioning, and securing the cannula to anatomical variables and pathology.
