Paclitaxel-coated balloons reduce restenosis after femoro-popliteal angioplasty: evidence from the randomized PACIFIER trial.
BACKGROUND Peripheral percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is fraught with a substantial risk of restenosis and reintervention. A drug-eluting balloon (DEB) based on a novel coating was compared with uncoated balloons in patients undergoing femoro-popliteal percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with symptomatic femoro-popliteal atherosclerotic disease undergoing...
متن کاملEffect of clopidogrel on early failure of arteriovenous fistulas for hemodialysis: a randomized controlled trial.
CONTEXT The arteriovenous fistula is the preferred type of vascular access for hemodialysis because of lower thrombosis and infection rates and lower health care expenditures compared with synthetic grafts or central venous catheters. Early failure of fistulas due to thrombosis or inadequate maturation is a barrier to increasing the prevalence of fistulas among patients treated with hemodialysi...
متن کاملThe experience use of drug-coated & non drug-coated balloons in arteriovenous fistula at a six months period: brief report
Background: The ineffectiveness of hemodialysis fistulas causes high costs and increases mortality and morbidity rates. The efficacy of drug-coated balloon and nondrug-coated balloon in dysfunctional arteriovenous Fistula was evaluated over six month period. Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, a total of a total of 50 hemodialysis patients who referred to Imam Reza Hospital in Kermansh...
متن کاملA multicenter, randomized, controlled trial of dexamethasone for bronchiolitis.
BACKGROUND Bronchiolitis, the most common infection of the lower respiratory tract in infants, is a leading cause of hospitalization in childhood. Corticosteroids are commonly used to treat bronchiolitis, but evidence of their effectiveness is limited. METHODS We conducted a double-blind, randomized trial comparing a single dose of oral dexamethasone (1 mg per kilogram of body weight) with pl...
متن کاملRoutine preoperative vascular ultrasound improves patency and use of arteriovenous fistulas for hemodialysis: a randomized trial.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are the preferred vascular access for hemodialysis but have a considerable failure rate. This study investigated whether routine preoperative vascular ultrasound results in better AVF outcome than physical examination. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Patients with end-stage kidney disease referred for permanent access forma...
