The Impact of Needle-Directed Thrombolysis in Thrombosed Arteriovenous Fistulas on Angioplasty Efficacy and the Prognostic Factors Associated with Success by Zhou Y, Lyu Q, Lai Q, Gao X, Chen L, Zhang X, Wan Z

“…The complete lysis rate of patients with both factors was 24.2%, whereas the rates of patients with one or neither factor were significantly higher (all &gt; 50% and P = 0.001).Conclusion: Complete thrombolysis is beneficial for improving the efficacy of recanalization procedures for thrombosed AVFs. Non-elbow AVFs and hemoglobin ≥ 115 g/L are predictors of an increased complete lysis rate.Keywords: arteriovenous fistula, indwelling needle, prognostic factor, thrombolysis…”
