Risk factors of vascular access failure in patients on hemodialysis.
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was primarily to determine if there was any relationship between hemoglobin levels and vascular access (VA) survival. In addition, other risk factors were evaluated with special stress on sex, age, diabetes mellitus, smoking, and medications. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study comprised 200 patients who had been on renal replacement therapy for more than 1 mon...
متن کاملPeripheral vascular disease risk factors among patients undergoing hemodialysis.
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is common among patients undergoing hemodialysis, but little is known regarding the risk factors for PVD in this population. Data from waves 1, 3, and 4 of the United States Renal Data System Dialysis Morbidity and Mortality Study were used to examine cross-sectional associations of a range of conventional cardiovascular risk factors and uremia- or dialysis-rel...
متن کاملCarotid artery Intima-Media thickness and cardiovascular risk factors in chronic hemodialysis patients
Introduction: Common carotid artery intima-media thickness (CCA-IMT) correlates with cardiovascular mortality in patients under hemodialysis. In this investigation, we evaluated relationship between CCA-IMT with dependent and independent cardiovascular risk factors in chronic hemodialysis patients. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 51 chronic hemodialysis patients, (31 males and 20 fema...
متن کاملVascular calcification, cardiovascular risk and arterial stiffness in hemodialysis patients
Intimal and medial calcification, the two main types of arterial calcification, are associated, respectively, with arteriosclerosis and mediosclerosis. In non-dialysis patients, both intimal1 and medial calcification2 may be the result of an active regulated process with different aetiologies, where local cells, such as macrophages in the intima or vascular smooth cells in the media, differenti...
متن کاملData Mining Performance in Identifying the Risk Factors of Early Arteriovenous Fistula Failure in Hemodialysis Patients
Background and Objectives: Arteriovenous fistula is a popular vascular access method for surgical treatment of hemodialysis patients. The method, however, is associated with a high rate of early failure varying in the range of 20-60%. Predicting early Arteriovenous fistula failure and its risk factors can help reduce its incidence, its hospitalization rate, and associated costs. In this study, ...
