Dialysis Access at Elyzee Hospital
Dialysis Access is a critical vascular service required for patients undergoing long-term hemodialysis. At Elyzee Hospital in Abu Dhabi, dialysis access procedures are performed under the specialty of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, ensuring safe, durable, and efficient blood flow through expertly created arteriovenous (AV) fistulas and AV grafts.
Importance of Reliable Dialysis Access
Effective dialysis depends on reliable vascular access that can provide adequate blood flow while minimizing complications. Poor or failing access can result in inadequate dialysis, infections, clotting, and frequent hospital visits. Elyzee Hospital emphasizes early planning and expert creation of dialysis access to support uninterrupted and effective treatment.
Arteriovenous (AV) Fistula for Dialysis
An AV fistula is created by surgically connecting a patient’s artery directly to a vein, usually in the arm. This connection allows the vein to enlarge and strengthen over time, making it suitable for repeated dialysis sessions. At Elyzee Hospital, AV fistulas are considered the preferred option due to their longevity, lower infection risk, and superior performance.
AV Graft for Dialysis Access
When a patient’s veins are not suitable for an AV fistula, an AV graft may be recommended. This involves placing a synthetic tube to connect an artery to a vein, providing an alternative access point for dialysis. Elyzee Hospital uses high-quality graft materials and advanced surgical techniques to ensure optimal outcomes and durability.
Advanced Techniques and Access Preservation
Our vascular specialists utilize ultrasound guidance, precise surgical planning, and minimally invasive interventions to create and maintain dialysis access. Elyzee Hospital also provides access monitoring, revision, and salvage procedures to address narrowing, clotting, or reduced blood flow and to prolong access lifespan.
Medical Benefits of Expert Dialysis Access Creation
