Patency of arterial repairs from wartime extremity vascular injuries [PDF]
Trauma Surgery & Acute Care Open, 2020 Background Extremity vascular injury (EVI) causes significant disability in Veterans of the Afghanistan/Iraq conflicts. Advancements in acute trauma care improved survival and decreased amputations. The study of wartime EVI has relied on successful limb salvage as a surrogate for vascular repair.

Intraoperative vascular Doppler ultrasound blood flow and peak systolic velocity predict early patency in hemodialysis arteriovenous fistula [PDF]
, 2021 Background: Chronic kidney disease is a major public health problem. Hemodialysis is the most common renal replacement therapy. Arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) are a possible access option, but early failure rates remain high. Objectives: to investigate the

Outcomes, Patency, and Complication Rates Following Arteriovenous Fistula Creation for Hemodialysis Access [PDF]
Advanced Journal of Biomedicine & MedicineBackground Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) remains the preferred vascular access for maintenance hemodialysis; however, real-world outcomes vary according to patient characteristics, vascular anatomy, and care pathways.

Failure of thrombolytic therapy to improve long-term vascular patency [PDF]
Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1994 Few data are available on long-term follow-up of arterial segments subjected to thrombolysis. We reviewed all cases of vascular occlusion treated with urokinase to identify early success and determine the influence of postlysis intervention and the nature of the thrombosed segment (i.e., artery vs graft) on long-term patency.Data on 134 cases (58 ...
