View clinical trials related to Arteriovenous Fistula.
Filter by:Drug-coated balloons delivering paclitaxel at the angioplasty site have proved their superiority in the treatment of coronary and peripheral arterial stenoses. Paclitaxel reduces neointimal hyperplasia, therefore, it represents an attractive option for AVF stenoses. This trial is aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Peripheral scoring drug balloon (Dissolve AV) or Balloon Dilatation catheter ( Armada 35) in treating AVF stenosis in chinese population.
BACKGROUND: Sedation and analgesia are related to unexpected adverse events in chronic renal failure patients undergoing arteriovenous fistula placement procedures under monitored anesthesia care (MAC). OBJECTIVE: Our goal was to investigate and compare the sedation and analgesia related effects and adverse effects of continuous intravenous use of midazolam and intermittent bolus doses of midazolam while intravenous remifentanil is used as a rescue medication in patients with chronic renal failure.
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) arises from many heterogeneous disease pathways that alter the function and structure of the kidney irreversibly, over months or years.End-stage renal disease (ESRD) arises from many heterogeneous disease pathways that alter the function and structure of the kidney irreversibly, over months or years. Haemodialysis (HD) is a lifeline therapy for patients with ESRD. Our study to compare methods of AVF creation, side to side and end to side . This randomized controlled trial .
In last few years, there is a new technology that permits the endovascular fistula creation with a minimum vascular trauma and the first results show encouraging results with high technical success rate, low resurgent and failure rates and good usability for hemodialysis. The implementation of the endoFAVI realization in dialysis patients is an emergent procedure that in our hospital can contribute important benefits to the patients, savings to the health system, as well research and innovation in the implicate services.
The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the possible applications of DUS during the maturation and postoperative follow-up of vascular access, with particular emphasis to establish a relationship between doppler Ultrasound parameters including: 1. Flow volume. 2. Outflow vein diameter. 3. Outflow vein depth. 4. Resistive index.
The study is planed on ASA I-III, 18-80 years old 60 patients developing chronic renal failure and needing arteriovenous fistula surgery for dialysis program in Istanbul Medeniyet University Goztepe Research Hospital. Informed consent of the patients will be obtained before surgery.Patients with hemoglobinopathy, coagulopathy, wound or infection in the thenar eminence, wound and infection in the supraclavicular region on the side of the regional block, allergic to local anesthetic drugs and mental retardation will not be included in the study. Standart monitorization (ECG, peripheral oxygen saturation and non-invasive arterial pressure monitoring) will be made. Base and 5 minutes interval values will be recorded until the end of the surgery. The pads of the NIRS monitor will be placed on the thenar eminence of both hands and fixed with the help of a draipe and basal measurements will be taken and recorded. The patients will then be divided into two groups according to computer-generated table of random numbers. Group L patients will undergo surgical cleansing and sterile draping and infiltrate %5 bupivacaine 15ml. Group B the supraclavicular areas of the patients who will undergo surgical procedures will be sterile covered after appropriate sterilization. After the brachial plexus is visualized around the subclavian artery in the supraclavicular region with the help of Samsung ultrasound device, Bupivacaine 5% 20ml and Lidocaine 2% 10ml will be applied around the brachial plexus using a 50mm stimuplex needle. The effectiveness of the block will be evaluated by a single investigator after withdrawal of the needle, either by effective anesthesia with the block or every 10 minutes up to 30 minutes. The sensory block will be evaluated with a 3 point scale and the motor block will be evaluated routinely before and after the modified bromage scale (scored between 0 and 4). After withdrawal of the treated needle, we will contact the relevant nerve dermatome with cold application (cold SF) and ask the patient to classify the degree of cold feeling from 0 to 3. Block will be considered unsuccessful if surgical block cannot be provided after 30 minutes or if the patient experiences pain at any time during the operation. The duration of anesthesia occurring after local infiltration of Group L and the sensory and motor blockade after group B stimulation is taken will be recorded. In both groups, NIRS values will be recorded at 5 minute intervals until the end of the case after local anesthetic application. Investigator will call the patients for primer patency of fistula one month after operation.
Haemodialysis is a renal replacement therapy that can be introduced to patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) to help them maintain a good healthy life. The patient's blood is pumped through a dialysis machine to remove excess fluid, salt and waste, then it is pumped back into the patient's circulation system. In order to carry out haemodialysis, vascular access (VA) is required to connect the patient to the dialysis machine. Patients have only three options of vascular access: arteriovenous fistula (AVF), an anastomosis between a native vein and an artery; arteriovenous graft (AVG), a connection between a synthetic tube and native blood vessels; and (3) central line, a cuffed catheter placed in a large neck vein. Arteriovenous fistulas are the preferred method for VA because of their longevity and causing the least number of complications. Although there are a number of factors that may increase the probability of AVF failure rate such as age and gender of the patient, poor native vessel structure, medications and the level of surgical experience, 30-40% of new AVFs fail to mature for unknown reasons. For an AVF to become functionally mature postoperative, remodelling and dilation of the native artery and vein are essential to accommodate significantly increased blood flow. However, pre-existing diseases in patients with ESRD such as arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction may impair AVF and preclude dialysis. It has been asserted that the lack of AVF success is attributable to insufficient arterial dilation because of poor arterial wall elasticity. The study aims to investigate the role of arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction in predicting AVF outcome using novel non-invasive ultrasound applications: 2D shear wave elastography and 2D strain speckle tracking will be employed to assess arterial stiffness, while an intraoperative flow-mediated dilation (FMD) technique will be used to evaluate endothelial dysfunction.
Evaluation of the FLEX Vessel Prep system combined with angioplasty in the treatment of arteriovenous access stenosis.
The results of this study will serve as a starting point for future trials concentrating on the effectiveness and clinical outcomes of the procedures performed in an office based angiosuite. Additionally, other studies could compare clinical outcomes between procedures performed in an office based angiosuite and other settings.
Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the recommended vascular access for chronic hemodialysis, as it is associated with less mortality and better patency than arteriovenous graft (AVG) or central venous catheter (CVC). Unfortunately, AVF suffers from a high failure rate, due, in part, to poor venous diameter. The aim of this study is to investigate whether a perioperative handgrip training can improve the diameter of AVF in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) (stage IV-V).
