Arteriovenous Fistula Recirculation in Hemodialysis
Recently, with great interest we read the review article by Zeraati et al. entitled “A review article: access recirculation among end stage renal disease patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis” in your most valuable journal (1). The author summarized some of observations about causes and clinical significance of arteriovenous (AV) fistula recirculation, techniques for accurate assessment ...
متن کاملMeasuring System of Urea in Blood by Application in Recirculation for Hemodialysis Treatment
End stage renal disease (ESRD) is one of the most common life-threatening diseases. The number of patients accepted for renal replacement therapy including hemodialysis (HD), peritoneal dialysis, and kidney transplantation in developed and developing countries increases each year and imposes a major social and economic burden on these communities.(1) With an increasing number of elderly patient...
متن کاملObtaining blood samples from peripheral intravenous catheters: best practice?
Occasionally, nurses perform phlebotomy via intravenous catheters, especially to improve efficiency in short-stay or procedural units. The intent of this practice is to reduce the number of venipunctures and thus increase patients’ comfort. However, obtaining laboratory specimens from peripheral intravenous catheters may hemolyze the specimens, and can even dislodge catheters and necessitate re...
متن کاملAlteplase versus urokinase for occluded hemodialysis catheters.
BACKGROUND The use of central venous catheters as a source of vascular access in patients undergoing hemodialysis may be complicated by thrombosis. Frequently, thrombolytics are used in an attempt to reestablish blood flow through partially or completely occluded catheters. OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy of alteplase (recombinant tissue plasminogen activator) versus urokinase in reestablis...
متن کاملTemporary hemodialysis catheters: recent advances
The insertion of non-tunneled temporary hemodialysis catheters (NTHCs) is a core procedure of nephrology practice. While urgent dialysis may be life-saving, mechanical and infectious complications related to the insertion of NTHCs can be fatal. In recent years, various techniques that reduce mechanical and infectious complications related to NTHCs have been described. Evidence now suggests that...
