Haemodialysis catheters increase mortality as compared to arteriovenous accesses especially in elderly patients.
BACKGROUND Catheter use has been associated with an increased mortality risk in haemodialysis patients. However, differences in the all-cause and cause-specific mortality risk between catheter use and arteriovenous access use in young and elderly haemodialysis patients have not yet been investigated. METHODS In this prospective cohort study of 1109 incident haemodialysis patients from 38 cent...
متن کاملACCESS HD pilot: A randomised feasibility trial Comparing Catheters with fistulas in Elderly patientS Starting haemodialysis
INTRODUCTION The selection of the type of vascular access for haemodialysis is an important intervention question. However, only observational studies are available to inform decision-making in this area, and they are at high risk of selection bias. While a clinical trial comparing the effects of the 2 most frequently chosen strategies for haemodialysis access (fistulas and catheters) on patien...
متن کاملHigher mortality of patients on haemodialysis with pancreatic diabetes compared to type 2-diabetes
In rare cases (1-8%) diabetic patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) suffer from diabetic nephropathy (dNP) due to pancreatic diabetes mellitus (PDM). Aim of this study was to investigate differences in the outcome of patients with PDM and those with type 2 diabetes.In a retrospective study we evaluated 96 diabetic patients, who started hemodialysis (HD) in our dialysis centre (1997-2005)...
متن کاملCompared to tunnelled cuffed haemodialysis catheters, temporary untunnelled catheters are associated with more complications already within 2 weeks of use.
BACKGROUND Comparison of outcome of untunnelled catheters (UCs) and tunnelled cuffed catheters (TCCs) is difficult because they are usually used for different patients and conditions. The aim of the present study is to compare the outcome of TCCs with UCs limiting as much as possible the influence of confounding factors. The second purpose was to see whether our results support the time recomme...
متن کاملMineral metabolism and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality risk: peritoneal dialysis patients compared with haemodialysis patients.
BACKGROUND The K/DOQI guideline for bone metabolism and disease in chronic kidney disease is predominantly based on studies in haemodialysis (HD) patients. However, in clinical practice, this guideline is also applied to peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. To validate the implementation of this guideline in PD patients, we evaluated the associations between plasma concentrations outside the K/DO...
