DISCLOSURES• Speaker and consultant to Cryolife(products include the HeRO graft)
• Speaker for Gore (products include dialysis access grafts and stents)
Both of these will be discussed in this presentation
It’s Almost Always the Outflow If it were only this easy

ACCESS REQUIREMENTS:1. Inflow (artery)2. Conduit (graft)3. Outflow (vein)
Main problem with dialysis access is the outflow ~ 90% failures
Intimal hyperplasia (scar tissue) tends to form atthe outflow leading to graft occlusion
Usually multiple repeated interventions are requiredto maintain patency

Best Place for a Catheter!
Worst Place for a Catheter!

Back to the Basics• History
– Number of catheters
– Last functioning access
–Which access functioned best?
– Anticoagulation?– Number of declots
Back to the Basics• Physical exam
– Look for scars– Chest wall– Pulses– Veins– Edema– Pacemaker/AICD
Must Look Venogram• A MUST FOR SUCCESS• Do before putting in access• Ultrasound guided access of brachial vein
• Micropuncture set• Look at both sides• Must see centrally

Interest in HeRO Sparked by Central Venous Stenting
CC: Recurrent thrombosis of left arm av graftHPI: 50s year old hispanic male with left arm av graft. He notes his arm has been ballooned 15-20 times, cannot remember when stent was put in.

Success! Patient M.B.September 2014
• 74 year old female• ESRD, hypertension, urostomy, colostomy, infected left thigh graft with bleeding removed
• Right femoral permcath changed multiple time
• She was told no further accesses possible
Currently with Femoral Catheter

Patient S.G.September 2014
• 40s• ESRD, CABG, HTN, DM II, left BKA, steal syndrome of right thigh av graft
• Left femoral permcath not functioning well
• Asked to evaluate for new permcath
Cath lab• Access brachial vein with micropuncture to determine central venous patency
• US guided access• Planning prior to going to the operating room

Patient J.H.November 2014
• 31 year old male• ESRD, hypertension, multiple previous accesses
• Many permcaths• Left arm basilic vein transposition a number of years ago, now with arm and face swelling

Gore Hybrid Gore Hybrid
• Upside is creating access in upper arm without having to go onto chest
• Main issue is it is not early access graft

SUMMARY • Always hit the reset button• Peritoneal dialysis may be an option• Avoid the pacemaker/AICD• Be sure to do venogram• Think hypercoagulable• Just because someone else said it could not be done – does not mean it is true
