| ABSTRACT:
Introduction & Objective: In patients with chronic renal failure
who need chronic hemodialysis, AV fistula is one of the most
proper ways of vascular access. The aim of this study was to
assess the patency and complications of AV fistulas in patients
with chronic hemodialysis.
Materials & Methods: In this descriptive study 82 patients with
chronic renal failure, who underwent AV fistulas in a 5 year- period
of time in Imam Khomeini Hospital Center were enrolled. Age,
gender, fistulas patency, complication rate and their relation with
diabetes, hypertension and history of Shaldone were assessed.
The collected data were analyzed by T and Chi-square test using
SPSS soft ware.
Results: the age mean of patients was 46.9±18.8 years. 46
patients (%56.1) were male. The mean of age was significantly
higher in patients with complication compared to patients without
complication. History of shaldone and hypertension were
significantly higher in patients with bad fistula blood flow compared
to patients with good fistula blood flow. History of shaldone,
diabetes and hypertension were significantly higher in patients with
complication compared to patients without complication. Female
patients were significantly prone to aneurysm than males. History
of transplants rejection was significantly higher in patients with
aneurysm than in those without aneurysm. History of hypertension
was significantly higher in patients with aneurysm and thrombosis
compared to those without aneurysm and thrombosis. History of
shaldone and Diabetes was significantly higher in patients with
thrombosis compared to those without thrombosis.
Conclusion: History of shaldone, Diabetes and Hypertension were
significantly higher in patients with complication and bad fistula
blood flow. |
