A method of fixing the epidural catheter by subcutaneous tunnelling and looping was devised. A prospective, randomised, double-blind, clinical trial was conducted in 68 adult patients, where postoperative pain relief was planned by thoracic epidural analgesia. In the tunnelled group (n = 34), the ep
The purpose of this study was development of an actively visualized .035-inch vascular guidewire for use in MR-guided interventions. The guidewire was actively visualized by inclusion of a 6-cm-long radiofrequency coil in its tip. A high contrast outline of the distal tip of the guidewire was obtain
Knotting of a balloon-tipped, flow-directed catheter leading to difficulty in its removal is a rare but serious complication. Several methods have been used to remove such catheters with nonsurgical techniques. A case of knotted catheter that was also entrapped in a surgical suture in a patient unde
