Abstract:Aim
This study aimed to assess the predictive role of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio, and mean platelet volume, on catheter survival in chronic hemodialysis patients, analyzing both infectious and non-infectious complications.
Methods
A retrospective analysis encompassed 1279 tunneled catheter insertion procedures involving 902 patients between March 2014 and October 2018. Patients were categorize… Show more
