According to the reporter, during the procedure, a venous puncture was performed with the introduction of the guide wire, followed by the removal of the needle.The path was dilated with the dilator, which was then removed.The catheter was inserted properly, and, subsequently, the guide wire was removed.The flow and reflux test of the catheter routes was carried out, with patency observed in only one of the three routes.A new irrigation attempt was made, without success in the obstructed waterways.Given the functional failure, it was decided to remove the catheter.On visual examination, a thrombus was observed attached to the distal end of the device.There was no reported patient outcome.
