Sažetak

The usage of temporary and permanent dialysis catheters for hemodialysis vascular access has been on continual increase. Complications may occur during catheter insertion as well as in the already inserted catheters, e.g., thrombosis and infections. Catheter infection includes the insertion site infection, infection of the tunnel and systemic bacteriemia. Catheter infections are mostly related to femoral catheters. The extraction of catheters with the administration of systemic antimicrobial agents are mandatory in cases with positive blood cultures
isolated from central venous catheters or blood stream. Constant evaluation, proper care and hygiene of dialysis catheters are highly recommended.
