摘要
En 中文
Preparing a dialysis patient for access placement is a process that should ideally begin well before the need for access use. Unfortunately, this is often not the case and patients are often seen well after dialysis has been initiated with a catheter. The process should include a detail-oriented history and a thorough vascular oriented physical examination. A complete history and physical exam will help tailor access options in individual patients. The KDOQI guideline structures the selection and timing of dialysis access, ensuring each patient's medical circumstances and preferences are taken into account. The preparation of a dialysis patient should also include discussion with the patient in regard to their values and expectations before coming to a life-long plan for the patient. This holistic approach aims to achieve reliable and functioning access while preserving future options and improving patient outcomes. This following review will cover the elements of both as well as adjunctive imaging modalities and their indications to allow for successful access placement. (c) 2024 Elsevier Inc.
