The examination was carried out and interpreted independently, blindly, and successively by two operators according to a precise methodology based on the measurement of cross-sectional diameter in B-mode and calculation of the stenosis percentage according to the ECST method.

Although emphasis with the Fistula First Initiative has historically focused on the prioritization of autogenous arteriovenous access, higher rates of maturation failure and access dysfunction have prompted a reappraisal of this approach in the literature and clinical practice. Oftentimes, frail or medically complex patients with dysfunctional access are subjected to a large number of surgical procedures to maintain or reestablish patency. The influence of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) dysfunction and repetitive reintervention on patient experience and quality of life remains largely unexplored in contemporary literature.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>Using a provincial database of renal failure patients (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System [PROMIS]), we selected patients who had undergone five or more interventional procedures (open or endovascular) to maintain vascular access within a 20-year period from a single institution. Semistructured interviews were conducted with these patients and analyzed qualitatively using the constant comparative approach.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>Seventeen patients who met the inclusion criteria were recruited from across British Columbia. The cohort included patients from both genders (10 male, 7 female) between the ages of 52 and 87 years old. Four major thematic categories were identified; treatment values, impact of disorder, disposition toward AVF and impact of repeated interventions. Survival was the primary theme in the treatment values category (11/17), with reduction in dialysis frequency being secondary. Within impact of disorder, loss of independence was the primary theme (14/17), with psychological impact being secondary. Displeasure with the high rates of failure emerged as the primary theme (15/17) in disposition toward AVF, with pain with use (8/17) and inadequate informed consent (8/17) as secondary themes. Finally, for impact of repeated interventions, the primary theme was interruption to daily life (12/17). Overall, only 8 of 17 patients expressed satisfaction with their AVF.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>These findings highlight that repeated interventions to maintain fistula patency pose significant disruption to patient's quality of life. Rates and impacts of fistula failure need to be explained thoroughly to patients during their informed consent process, moving toward a more patient-centered, individualized and holistic approach to vascular access over a ubiquitous fistula-first approach in all cases.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":74034,"journal":{"name":"JVS-vascular insights","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949912723000478/pdfft?md5=41d72600b41a0ce9ebb22c4b8785c4de&pid=1-s2.0-S2949912723000478-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139129142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These interviews were conducted with six academic vascular surgeons who often performed open abdominal aortic aneurysm operations at a tertiary care academic medical center. The interview targeted several domains, such as preoperative habits, postoperative habits, and operating room practices. A research team member conducted all interviews, recorded, and later transcribed them. Two independent research team members cross-referenced the interview transcriptions. Thematic analysis using NVivo was performed to identify patterns and themes among the interviews given by the study participants.

In total, five major themes were identified in all six interviews. The themes were perception of ergonomics, preprocedural habits, postprocedural habits, the impact of surgeries on ergonomic health, and advice to future trainees. Within these five themes, there were a multitude of subthemes between the six participants. Of the six participants, two (33%) mentioned the importance of preoperative and postoperative exercise and stretching, including targeting core muscles and legs to cope with the lengthy procedural demands. Some of the comments were alarming and eye opening, for example “Oh, I think it's actually horrible. It's horrible. I know. It's killing me slow.” All six of the participants (100%) emphasized the need for optimizing the height of the surgical table, and four participants (66%) mentioned ensuring the need for proper equipment, such as loupes, during the procedure to prevent neck and back pain postoperatively. Finally, four of the participants (66%) agreed that incoming trainees must develop healthy habits, such as proper sleep hygiene, stretching, and hydration. Three participants (50%) discussed the importance of exercise to overcome the physical demands of vascular surgery and maintaining hobbies during training as coping mechanisms against mental burnout.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Vascular surgeons face unique ergonomic challenges daily.
