Summary

In our study, investigators will investigate the effectiveness and complications of two catheter lock solutions one of which is the standard heparin routinely used in comparison to Sodium bicarbonate. Both solutions were used but not compared head to head. Investigators aim to compare both solutions in terms of catheter lumen patency and their effect on catheter-related infections.

Conditions

  • Catheter Blockage
  • Catheter-Related Infections
  • Dialysis Catheter; Thrombosis
  • Catheter Infection
  • Catheter Related Complication
  • Catheter Dysfunction

Interventions

DRUG

Sodium bicarbonate

Dialysis catheter lumen will be filled (locked) by sodium bicarbonate solution. The amount of solution depends on the diameter and length and will be in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.

DRUG

Heparin

Dialysis catheter lumen will be filled (locked) by classic heparin. The amount of pure heparin depends on the diameter and length and will be in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.
