Groshong Catheter Placement

Groshong catheter placement is the insertion of a long, flexible catheter into a vein (usually the jugular or subclavian). It is used for long-term intravenous therapy, such as chemotherapy or hemodialysis.

Portacath Placement

Portacath placement is a procedure in which a small device (port) is implanted under the skin, usually in the chest. The port connects to a catheter inserted into a vein. It provides a long-term access point for medications, fluids, and blood draws, commonly used in patients needing repeated chemotherapy or other treatments.

Venous Access Placement

Venous access placement refers to the insertion of a device (such as a catheter or port) into a vein to allow for the administration of medications, fluids, or blood draws. This can be done through peripheral veins (arm veins) or central veins (subclavian or jugular).

Venous Access Removal

Venous access removal is the process of removing a previously placed venous access device, such as a catheter or port. This may be done when the device is no longer needed, if there are complications, or if infection occurs.
