The Association of Mineral Metabolism with Vascular Access Patency
Journal of Vascular Access, 2016Background Declining kidney function leads to progressively dysregulated mineral homeostasis and contributes to vascular calcification and a pro-inflammatory milieu, both of which play a critical role in loss of dialysis vascular access patency. We designed this study to examine the relationship between markers of bone and mineral metabolism, vitamin D

Efficacy of statin on vascular access patency in diabetic hemodialysis patients [PDF]
The Journal of Vascular Access, 2017 Introduction An effective approach to prevent hemodialysis vascular access dysfunction is still unclear despite previous studies, which have shown conflicting results of several drugs on vascular access outcomes. In this study, we focused on diabetic hemodialysis patients with native arteriovenous fistula and evaluated the impact of statin treatment on

Nursing and midwifery practice for maintenance of vascular access device patency. A cross-sectional survey [PDF]
International Journal of Nursing Studies, 2015 BackgroundUp to 85% of hospital in-patients will require some form of vascular access device to deliver essential fluids, drug therapy, nutrition and blood products, or facilitate sampling.

Klotho functionalization on vascular graft for improved patency and endothelialization
Biomaterials Advances, 2022The Klotho (KL) gene is related to aging. In this study, SKL (secreted KL) and heparin were cross-linked to the acellular small intestinal submucosa (SIS). Based on this, tissue-engineered bioactive small blood vessels were constructed. The goal of this study was to determine whether the release of SKL could improve the patency of small-diameter tissue-

Maintenance of vascular access patency in pediatrics
Pediatric Radiology, 1986The patency of vascular access shunts and fistulae has been prolonged by a combined surgical and radiological approach that includes percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), surgical revision, thrombectomy, and thrombolysis. Over the last 3 years, 35 vascular accesses in 27 patients were found to have angiographic abnormality.

How to Prolong the Patency of Vascular Access
2015Prolonging the patency and limiting the complications of a functioning hemodialysis (HD) access require a multidisciplinary approach. It begins with careful access planning that is executed and continually reinforced by physicians and facility staff encouraging active patient participation.

Long-Term Patency of Solid-Wall Vascular Prostheses
Archives of Surgery, 1965SEVERAL discoveries over the past 15 years have progressively led to the recent suggestion that metals of low work function (high in the electromotive series) would not thrombose on implantation into the aorta or vena cava when used as a prosthetic vessel replacement.

Optimizing Vascular Patency in Replantation
2014Once the decision is made to proceed with replantation of an amputated part, the most critical factor in the short-term success of the replantation is vascular patency. Replantation success rates are approximately 75–80 %, while free tissue transfer enjoys a survival rate which has improved in recent years, with most large series demonstrating success ...
