From: Safety and Performance of a Cell-Impermeable Endoprosthesis for Hemodialysis Vascular Access Outflow Stenosis: A Brazilian Multicenter Retrospective Study

Outcome measure type

Outcome measure description

Outcome measure definition

Primary outcome measure

Target lesion primary patency at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months

The time between device placement and any subsequent intervention within the region where the device was implanted or access circuit thrombosis

Primary safety outcome measure

30-day safety

Freedom from localized or systemic serious adverse events through 30 days post-procedure

Secondary outcome measure

Technical success

Successful deployment of the device at the intended location

Secondary outcome measure

Procedural success

Achieving < 30% residual stenosis following the completion of the procedure accompanied by the resolution of the preprocedural clinical indicators of access dysfunction

Secondary outcome measure

Access circuit primary patency at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months

The time spanning from device placement to the initial intervention anywhere within the access circuit or in the event of access circuit thrombosis

Secondary outcome measure

Target lesion secondary patency at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months

The time from initial device placement until the AVG or AVF was abandoned

  1. AVF, arteriovenous fistula; AVG, arteriovenous graft
