VASCULAR ACCESS FOR HEMODIALYSIS: OUR EXPERIENCE WITH 3337 CASES
Over a seven year period from 1982 to 1989,3337 conduits were created in 3137 patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) as access for chronic dialysis. These included 2690 side-to-side arteriovenous fistulae (A VF), 168 end-to-side A VFs, 10 autogenous vein grafts, 51 homogenous frozen vein grafts, 109 polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts, 209 emergency external arteriovenous shunts, t...
متن کاملSurveillance of Hemodialysis Vascular Access with Ultrasound Vector Flow Imaging
The aim of this study was prospectively to monitor the volume flow in patients with arteriovenous fistula (AVF) with the angle independent ultrasound technique Vector Flow Imaging (VFI). Volume flow values were compared with Ultrasound dilution technique (UDT). Hemodialysis patients need a well-functioning vascular access with as few complications as possible and preferred vascular access is an...
متن کاملHemodialysis Vascular Access Dysfunction
A successful functioning vascular access is the “lifeline” for a hemodialysis patient. Hemodialysis vascular access dysfunction is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in hemodialysis patients1-3. Improving vascular access outcomes remains an ongoing challenge for nephrologists, vascular access surgeons, and interventionists. In arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) and grafts (AVG), the most common...
متن کامل[Vascular access for hemodialysis].
Reference is made to a personal series of vascular accesses for haemodialysis on 273 patients aged 6 months to 70 yr. During the course of 12 years, 533 operations were performed: 109 cannulations of the saphena, 152 by-pass, 251 arteriovenous fistulae (including 22 on patients under 10 yr of age), and 21 "difficult accesses". An assessment of the advantages and disadvantages of the techniques ...
متن کاملVascular Access for Hemodialysis
Patients with acute kidney failure (AKF) and chronic kidney failure (CKF) require an appropriate vascular access for hemodialysis [1]. Vascular access is needed to allow blood flow through an extracorporeal circulation system with a blood pump connected to a hemodialysis monitor driving the blood through a dialysis filter (dialysator). Satisfactory levels of blood flow range between 300 and 400...
