Hi everyone! I need help looking for an article!! I am looking for an article regarding Care for Quinton Catheters, preferably within 5 years. The article needs to include who are the candidates, the indication for it, and how to care for it. Anyone know of a website? it would be a big help! Thanks in advance! :)

Try googling for the manufacturer. Here's a starting point. There are multiple types so you need to be specific:

Hi..yes this is for school. I'm in 3rd semester. I have to find an article about Care of Vascular devices:quinton (no tunneled) and present it to my clinical group. I've searched in our library databases and it hasn't been very helpful. I really don't know where else to look. ?

If you are only searching for Quinton catheters it is probably limiting your results because that is a brand name. Look for non tunneled vascular access devices or non tunneled hemodialysis catheters. That may broaden your search quite a bit.
