Here is my "op report".
Procedure: Elective Dialysis Catheter Insertion.

The patient was appropriately positioned. Observing universal precautions, the skin was sterilely prepped and draped. Appropriate anesthesia was achieved. A 14 French Mahurkar Double Lumen antimicrobial-coated catheter was inserted in the left Femoral vein without difficulty.

I believe this would constitute a central venous catheter but I'm not sure. Please help :/
