The Case for Pro-Active Access Management
Pre-emptive Access Management” is far superior than the current standard practice of “Crisis Management” when it comes to ESRD patients on hemodialysis. Proper maturation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of AV Fistulas and Grafts have been proven to be a cost-effective way to prevent premature access failure, reduce the need for tunneled catheters, improve dialysis adequacy and outcomes, reduce morbidity and mortality, and enhance patient quality of life.

Stents – Not Just for Treating Stenoses!
An “outside-the-box” look at creative ways our innovative practice has employed stents to help patients with challenging accesses achieve success on hemodialysis. Learn how stents can be used to treat elastic recoil, repair pseudoaneurysms, mature fistulas, soften acute angles/ extreme curves/ “hitches” & “kinks”, pry open stiff valves, treat “steal”, fortify/ repair fatigued graft segments, improves radial strength of easily compressible accesses, exclude flow-diverting collaterals, treat recurrent intrastent intimal hyperplasia, achieve central vein reconstruction, and prevent potentially fatal bleeding complications.
