Status of research in vascular access for dialysis.
BACKGROUND Vascular access issues impose a major financial burden to health care and can be associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In this context, strategies, guidelines and available published information become important tools for health-care facilities and workers. While published data form a sound basis of formulating clinical practice guidelines for vascular access (VA), quali...
متن کاملNovel paradigms for dialysis vascular access: upstream hemodynamics and vascular remodeling in dialysis access stenosis.
Failure of hemodialysis access is caused mostly by venous intimal hyperplasia, a fibro-muscular thickening of the vessel wall. The pathogenesis of venous neointimal hyperplasia in primary arteriovenous fistulae consists of processes that have been identified as upstream and downstream events. Upstream events are the initial events producing injury of the endothelial layer (surgical trauma, hemo...
متن کاملLower Extremity Permanent Dialysis Vascular Access.
Hemodialysis remains the most commonly used RRT option around the world. Technological advances, superior access to care, and better quality of care have led to overall improvement in survival of patients on long-term hemodialysis. Maintaining a functioning upper extremity vascular access for a prolonged duration continues to remain a challenge for dialysis providers. Frequently encountered dif...
متن کاملEndovascular Techniques for Dialysis Vascular Access
A nephrologist is well equipped to understand and manage the complexities involved in educating and preparing a patient with chronic kidney disease to embrace the challenges involved with renal replacement therapy. The importance of vascular access in providing adequate dialysis therapy cannot be overemphasized. Unfortunately, it remains a weak link in providing optimal care and a major cause o...
متن کاملNew Insights into Dialysis Vascular Access: Introduction.
Optimizing vascular access outcomes continues to pose a tremendous challenge to nephrologists, surgeons, and radiologists who provide medical care to patients on hemodialysis. There is a huge discrepancy between the optimal vascular access outcome proposed by national guidelines (1) and the reality. Thus, for example, whereas the guidelines suggest that most patients should initiate hemodialysi...
