A prospective study of central venous catheterisation for parenteral treatment was carried out. The catheters were used for a variety of purposes, the majority for intravenous feeding alone. Three types of catheter were used - fine silastic tubing, Vygon Leader Caths and cuffed Hickman and Broviac catheters. The mean catheter life was 42 days with a range of 1-400 days. Sixty-two catheters were removed prior to completion of treatment. In this series the Hickman catheters were remarkably trouble-free.
对用于肠外治疗的中心静脉置管进行了一项前瞻性研究。这些导管用于多种目的，大多数仅用于静脉内喂养。使用了三种类型的导管——细硅橡胶管、Vygon Leader Caths以及带袖套的希克曼导管和布罗维阿克导管。导管的平均使用时长为42天，范围为1至400天。62根导管在治疗完成前被拔除。在该系列中，希克曼导管的问题显著较少。
