abstract background peripheral blood vessels, due to availability are used for many years in cancer patients, however in patients with potentially harmful drugs to skin (vesicant drugs) or difficult accessibility to vessels, the use of implantable port (totally implantable venous access port-tivap)devices with central vascular access are important.  materials and methods in this retrospective s...

abstract background some researches have shown the association between iron deficiency and migraine headache in adults. the aim of present study was to evaluate efficacy of ferrous sulfate treatment on migraine headaches of 5-15 years old migraineur children with iron deficiency. materials and methods in a quasi- experimental study, monthly frequency, severity, duration and disability of headac...

BackgroundThe optimal strategy for large bore vascular closure following TAVR is a matter of contention as major bleeding and complications remain challenge. We compared three strategies post-TAVR in terms safety efficacy: dual ProGlide-based strategy, hybrid ProGlide Angio-Seal, MANTA strategy.MethodsPatients were enrolled one the strategies: two ProGlides, single with an 8 F or 18 MANTA.Resul...

arteriovenous fistulae traditionally have been placed in the upper extremity. experience with groin hemodialysis access has been discouraging because of high infection rates and associated limb amputation. the aim of this study was to determine infection rates, patency rates, and possible predictive factors for prosthetic thigh angioaccess outcomes in our hemodialysis patient population. a pros...

OBJECTIVE Intraosseous access is a rapid and safe alternative when peripheral vascular access is difficult. Our aim was to assess the safety and efficacy of a semi-automatic intraosseous infusion device (EZ-IO) when using a management algorithm for difficult vascular access in an out-of-hospital setting. METHODS This was a one-year prospective, observational study by mobile intensive care uni...

background: arteriovenous fistula (avf)is the ideal method of vascular access for patients on maintenance hemodialysis (hd).therefore it is an important part of treatment in hd.there are several observations that indicate the role of inflammation in failure of avf.the aim of this study was to evaluate the hematologic and inflammatory biomarkers in early avf failure.   methods : this case-contro...

totally implantable venous access devices (tivad) or implantable catheter ports are devices which can be implanted subcutaneously. they enable prolonged and repeated access to the vascular system, into the peritoneal cavity or intravertebral space. this device is particularly useful for repeated medical injection, for blood sampling or transfusion of blood and blood derivatives and for total pa...
