Routine use of completion imaging after infrainguinal bypass is not associated with higher bypass graft patency

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Significant variability exists in completion imaging (CIM) after infrainguinal lower extremity bypass (LEB). We evaluated the use of CIM and compared graft patency in patients treated by surgeons who performed routine CIM vs those who ...

Primary Vascular Access

, 2006
Primary vascular access is usually achievable by a distal autogenous arterio-venous fistula (AVF). This article describes the approach to vascular access planning, the usual surgical options and the factors affecting ...

EFFECT OF HEPARIN ON THE PATENCY OF ARTERIOVENOUS FISTULA [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 2008
Patients with end stage renal disease need a good vascular access for hemodialysis. Arteriovenous fistula is the method of choice for vascular access in these patients. However, failure of arteriovenous fistula due to thrombosis is a major problem.

Application of self-sealing vascular graft and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene vascular graft in establishment of vascular access

Linchuang shenzangbing zazhi, 2019
Objective To compare application effects of self-sealing vascular graft(Acuseal) and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene(ePTFE) vascular grafts in establishment of arteriovenous fistula in maintenance hemodialysis patients, so as to provide reference for ...

Patency of arteriovenous fistulas in hemodialysis in French Guiana: influence of vascular flow, climate and clinical factors

BMC Nephrology
Introduction Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred access for hemodialysis. Achieving one-year patency is crucial to avoid dependence on central venous catheters, which carry significant risks of infection and thrombosis.

A bio-inspired screwed small-diameter vascular graft for endotheliazation and arterial regeneration

Bioactive Materials
The frequent failures of small-diameter vascular grafts (SDVGs) mainly result from thrombosis and insufficient endothelialization. Despite recent biochemical modification strategies aiming to enhance long-term patency, the challenges of suppressing ...

Regulation and Maintenance of Vascular Tone and Patency in Cardiovascular Health and Disease

International Journal of Vascular Medicine, 2012
Despite numerous advances in health care practices, cardiovascular disease still remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Perhaps the most important consequence of cardiovascular disease is the interruption of blood flow to organs such as the heart and brain, resulting in the clinical presentation of a heart attack or stroke.

Operative management of vascular thoracic outlet syndrome (VTOS) over two decades: patency, complications, and functional outcome

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Vascular thoracic outlet syndrome (VTOS), encompassing both venous and arterial subtypes, arises from extrinsic compression of the subclavian vessels within the thoracic outlet, leading to significant morbidity.
