Presentation
The aim of this study is to present a case of true brachial artery aneurysm in end-stage renal disease patient after arteriovenous fistula creation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Entire Body System
- Fever
Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is usually an autosomal recessive autoinflammatory disease characterized by recurrent attacks of fever and serositis. FMF develops before the age of 20 years in 90% of patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Respiratoric
- Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure
Blood gas analysis revealed hypercapnic respiratory failure and spirometry restrictive lung disease. After exclusion of other causes of restrictive lung disease with chest CT-scan and cerebrum MRI, electrophysiological study revealed myopathy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Gastrointestinal
- Epigastric Pain
We reported a 50-year-old woman with TAFRO syndrome diagnosed 2 years after the initial symptoms of a fever, fatigue, epigastric pain, edema, ascites, lymphadenopathy, thrombocytopenia and renal insufficiency. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Jaw & Teeth
- Macroglossia
Two patients were referred to the Oral Medicine Clinic due to the presence of multiple nodules on the tongue and macroglossia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Cardiovascular
- Hypotension
OBJECTIVE: Hypotension during hemodialysis (HD) is the most common complication that negatively affects the quality of life of patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Filtration rates are typically low, especially in hypotensive patients. (See Arteriovenous Fistula.) [merckmanuals.com]
Musculoskeletal
- Myopathy
After exclusion of other causes of restrictive lung disease with chest CT-scan and cerebrum MRI, electrophysiological study revealed myopathy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Skin
- Pruritus
RESULTS: The results showed that aromatherapy reduced some of the complications of hemodialysis, including anxiety, fatigue, pruritus, pain of arteriovenous fistula puncture, sleep quality, depression, stress and headache. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Other frequent complications include Restless leg syndrome Cramps Pruritus Nausea and vomiting Headache Chest and back pain In most cases, these complications occur for unknown reasons, but some may be part of a first-use syndrome (when the patient’s [merckmanuals.com]
Abstract Patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) may exhibit various cutaneous abnormalities, including changes in skin colour, pruritus, xerosis, hair, nail and oral changes, metastatic calcinosis, and bullous dermatosis. [journals.sagepub.com]

Workup
Serum
- Albumin Increased
Hemoglobin and albumin levels also increased in the short daily hemodialysis group during follow-up, with a significant temporal trend in increasing hemoglobin noted across the three time points ( P < 0.01 for trend; Table 3 ). [jasn.asnjournals.org]
Microbiology
- Coxiella Burnetii
We report the second case worldwide of a prosthetic hemodialysis vascular graft infection by Coxiella burnetii, with intense hypermetabolism on PET-CT, Q fever serology consistent with persistent infection, and positive C. burnetii DNA in the blood and [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
Each hemodialysis treatment normally takes four to five hours, and usually three treatments a week are needed. More frequent, shorter treatments or longer treatments may be indicated for certain patients. [web.archive.org]
Abstract The treatment for patients with lung cancer undergoing hemodialysis, who are frequently elderly and have poor performance status, becomes a more important subject. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The treatment is usually prescribed three times a week. [dciinc.org]
You'll be around other people receiving similar treatment. [freseniuskidneycare.com]
Prognosis
Prognosis is variable, but can be potentially fatal depending on the severity of adhesion, and sequelae of complications. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Fresenius Medical Care strives continuously to develop and implement innovative therapies and products to improve the cardiovascular prognosis of dialysis patients. [freseniusmedicalcare.com]
Etiology
Further studies are needed to more clearly elucidate the etiology. . [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In children, early diagnosis and detection of the etiologic factors are important to improve their health outcomes [2]. [scirp.org]
Epidemiology
We review the available literature on the epidemiology, risk factors, long-term sequelae, and known management strategies of adherent catheters. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Taking into account recent developments, an international group of contributors addresses issues related to vascular access, epidemiology, inflammation, fluid management, uremic toxicity, treatment efficacy, advanced techniques, calcium/phosphate homeostasis [karger.com]
Pathophysiology
This review highlights current knowledge on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and risk factors for sudden cardiac death among hemodialysis patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The aim of this study is to investigate whether intermittent heparin is as effective as continuous heparin to prevent thrombus formation as well as to prevent bleeding and predict the survival outcome. [indonesianjournalofclinicalpathology.org]
