Occluded Totally Implanted Central Venous Catheter Clinical Trial
Official title:
Determining the Safe Dosage of Ascorbic Acid Used in the Treatment of Occluded Totally Implanted Central Venous Catheter.
The hypothesis of the study is to evaluate whether ascorbic acid is able to clear totally implanted central venous catheter
Totally implanted catheter is often occluded and thrombolytic drugs are usually used to restore permeability. In Brazil, the ascorbic acid has been used successfully by a service specialist in cancer treatment. However, no literature on international research that evaluates the efficacy and safety of this procedure. That was why it was decided to develop this research. ;
