Background: Central venous catheters (CVC) are a potential source of bacteraemia and have been associated with increased mortality in haemodialysis patients. We aimed to investigate the relationships between vascular access, taking into account changes access type during patients' lives, cause specific risk national cohort dialysis Methods: Prospective study including all patients receiving Scotland at annual cross sectional surveys 2009, 2010 2011. Data were collected through Scottish Renal...
The practice of advising patients to stop antiplatelet agents before an elective renal biopsy is widespread. aim this study was compare the rate bleeding complications in two centres that have different policies regarding ongoing use undergoing biopsy. Neither centre routinely checks time A secondary aim, therefore, complication rates from cohort with those reported literature where screening for prolonged standard practice.A retrospective 1120 biopsies performed by nephrologists under...
Background. UK native renal biopsy incidence is unknown. Biopsy registries in other countries indicate that the of varies widely. Indications for are largely opinion based.
BackgroundPatients receiving treatment with renal replacement therapy (RRT) have high mortality, and ensuring patient safety in this population is difficult. We aimed to estimate the incidence nature of medical adverse events contributing death patients being treated RRT.
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a with profound impact on the patient, health system and economy. Tunnelled haemodialysis catheters (TDC) are amongst most common dialysis methods. It has been established internationally that certain demographic descriptors aetiologies carry an increased risk of complications. There dearth epidemiological profiling ESRD patients TDC in South Africa.To establish profile who received to complication rate, goal demonstrating associations between profiles...
Metals have been used in clinical practice for hundreds of years and a variety indications. Although potent agents whose activity may be adapted by manipulation their chemistry that associated ligands, use has limited toxic effects. There is now burgeoning series delivery technologies available which to the administration metal based drugs. Together with greater understanding mechanisms action disease processes, there an opportunity increase metals medicine targeting more effectively...
