conclusion for more precise prediction of successful aavf maturation after spta, short-term follow-up doppler ultrasonography (< 2 weeks) was useful. if the asr was < 0.7 or if residual stenosis was ≥ 30%, immediate repeat spta is recommended. results the technical and clinical success rates were both 94.9% (56/59); the mean asr was 0.84. an asr of ≥ 0.7 and no significant residual stenosis (< ...

Information literacy embraces the ability to access useful information, to have the awareness organizing knowledge and information requiring different methods of search and most effective diagnostic information for problem solving and decision-making. Those who lack these abilities are continuously confused in the vast ocean of information. This study investigated designing model of educators’ ...
