Worldwide, approximately four million people are receiving kidney replacement therapy, with haemodialysis (HD) accounting for nearly 90% of all dialysis procedures. Vascular access used for HD, such as arteriovenous fistula (AVF) or grafts (AVGs), is related to fewer complications and reduced morbidity and mortality compared to central venous dialysis lines.
This course, hosted by Prof. Stavros Spiliopoulos, will include theoretical and hands-on training on a variety of interventions using various techniques (angioplasty, stenting, percutaneous thrombectomy, thrombolysis, volume flow-guided and IVUS-guided procedures) and numerous endovascular devices used for the treatment of failing or failed dialysis vascular access (both AVF and AVGs). Lectures by renowned experts will be complemented by case discussions and hands-on workshops.
