1. A catheter (12) for dialysis, having a proximal end for introducing into a blood vessel, a distal end (10) for extracting blood and for introducing purified blood, and at least one fixing means (26, 28) surrounding a tube section (18, 22) for fixing the catheter (12) on a patient,
the at least one fixing means (26, 28) having a receiving part (30) and an opening part (32);
with respect to the receiving part (34), the opening part (32) being configured to move from an opening position, in which the tube section (18, 22) is insertable into the at least one fixing means (26, 28), into a closing position, in which the tube section (18, 22) is fixed in the at least one fixing means (26, 28);
the opening part (32) being arranged on the receiving part (30) by means of a film hinge (34), the receiving part (30) having at least one eyelet (40, 42, 44) and the opening part (32) has at least one corresponding eyelet (50);
the at least one corresponding eyelet (50) of the opening part (32) being located in the closing position in axial extension along a common longitudinal axis (46) next to the at least one eyelet (40, 42, 44) of the receiving part (30), such that adjacent eyelets can be penetrated together by a thread guided along the common longitudinal axis (46) for fixing the at least one fixing means (26, 28) on the patient;
the receiving part (30) having an underside facing the patient with a flat support section (48);
the common longitudinal axis (46) extending parallel to the flat support section (48) and the film hinge (34), characterized in that
the at least one fixing means (26, 28) comprises a first fixing means (26) and a second fixing means (28);
the catheter (12) has two tube sections (18) which run parallel to one another and each form at least one lumen;
the first fixing means (26) is provided which receives the two tube sections (18); and
the second fixing means (28) is provided proximal to the first fixing means(26) and receives a tube section (22) forming the at least two lumens.
