Graft modification strategies to improve patency of prosthetic arteriovenous grafts for hemodialysis [PDF]

, 2016
Prosthetic arteriovenous grafts (AVGs) are indicated for vascular access for long-term hemodialysis in patients in whom creation or maintenance of an arteriovenous fistula (AVF) has failed or is contraindicated. AVGs have an inferior long-term patency as

Drug-coated balloon versus conventional balloon angioplasty of hemodialysis arteriovenous fistula or graft: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BACKGROUND:Restenosis remains a significant problem in endovascular therapy for hemodialysis vascular access. Drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty decreases restenosis in peripheral and coronary artery diseases.

Smoking and the patency of lower extremity bypass grafts: A meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2005
ObjectiveSmoking is the major risk factor associated with the development and progression of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). To establish the best estimate of the effect of smoking, smoking cessation, and the dose-response relationship on the patency ...

Outcomes, Patency, and Complication Rates Following Arteriovenous Fistula Creation for Hemodialysis Access [PDF]

Advanced Journal of Biomedicine & Medicine
Background 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 ...

Combination Pharmacotherapy for Achievement and Maintenance of Vascular Patency [PDF]

Stroke, 2009
Acute ischemic stroke results from an abrupt interruption of focal cerebral blood flow. In the majority of cases, this interruption is caused by an acute thromboembolism. Arising from the clinical trials in acute myocardial infarction, combination pharmacotherapy is gaining significant interest as a potential method to improve current thrombolytic ...

Efficacy of SMART Stent Placement for Salvage Angioplasty in Hemodialysis Patients with Recurrent Vascular Access Stenosis

International Journal of Nephrology, 2011
Vascular access stenosis is a major complication in hemodialysis patients. We prospectively observed 50 patients in whom 50 nitinol shape-memory alloy-recoverable technology (SMART) stents were used as salvage therapy for recurrent peripheral venous ...

Stent grafts improved patency of ruptured hemodialysis vascular accesses [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2022
AbstractThis study aimed to compare stent graft with balloon tamponade for ruptured dialysis access during percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. Patients over an 8-year period (2010–2018) were identified from a database of 11,609 procedures. The primary endpoint was target lesion primary patency at 12 months.
