Endovascular Interventions for Dialysis Access Maintenance

Endovascular interventions for dialysis access maintenance are minimally invasive procedures used to address issues with the blood vessels that help patients receive dialysis, a treatment for kidney failure. These procedures, performed using guided imaging techniques, can repair or clear blockages in the vascular access points—typically arteriovenous (AV) fistulas or grafts. By restoring proper blood flow, these interventions help ensure that dialysis treatments continue effectively, improving the patient's quality of care and reducing the need for more invasive surgeries. This approach is often preferred due to its reduced recovery time and lower risk compared to traditional surgery.
