NCT07038993
Brief Summary:
This study aimed to detect the possibility of using venous pressure as a predictor for high flow access as a simple, non-invasive screening technique in hemodialysis patients.
Detailed Description:
The patient's vascular access is often referred to as their "lifeline," and without it, the life-sustaining treatment of hemodialysis would not be possible. To maintain access, patency depends on accurate diagnosis and timely, active interventions.
The Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (K/DOQI) recommends native arteriovenous fistula (AVF) as the vascular access of choice for hemodialysis due to its longevity, lower complications, and lower mortality rate compared to catheters.
Currently, K/DOQI guidelines suggest that high intra-access pressure may be regarded as a surrogate for arteriovenous fistula (AVF) outflow stenosis. It can be measured using static venous pressure (sVP) or standardized dynamic venous pressure (dVP).
