Hemodialysis vascular access coordinator: Three‐level model for access management
Sousa, Clemente Neves; Teles, Paulo; Sousa, Rui; Cabrita, Filipa; Ribeiro, Olga; Delgado, Elisabete; Coutinho, Sara; Moura, Sandra Cristina MendoManagement of vascular access is a challenge for the dialysis team, particularly tokeep the arteriovenous access working. The vascular access coordinator can posi-tively contribute to increase the number of arteriovenous fistulas and reduce centralvenous catheters. In this article, we introduce a new approach to vascular accessmanagement centered on (the results of setting up) the role of vascular access coor-d...
Radio‐cephalic fistula recovered with drainage to median basilic vein by straig...
Costa, Luísa Lemos; Matos, António Norton; Almeida, Paulo; Teles, Paulo; Loureiro, Luís; Campos, Luís; Delgado, Elisabete; Oliveira, DeboraThe distal arteriovenous fistula (AVF) has less complications and better patency than the proximal fistula, when it works properly. The complications of outflow of the fistula are complex, and it is necessary to analyze all solutions to solve the problem. We introduce a novel approach to solve outflow problems of a radio-cephalic AVF by straightening of the forearm cephalic vein with drainage into the median ba...
