Ep. 141 DEB vs. Balloon Angioplasty Alone for Dysfunctional HD Access with Dr. Eric Therasse

Ep. 141 DEB vs. Balloon Angioplasty Alone for Dysfunctional HD Access with Dr. Eric Therasse

Dr. Eric Therasse discusses the results of a randomized clinical trial demonstrating benefit of drug eluting balloon (DEB) over balloon angioplasty alone in treatment of Dysfunctional Hemodialysis Access. --- SHOW NOTES In this episode, Dr. Eric Therasse, an author of the recent JVIR article titled “Safety and Efficacy of Paclitaxel-Eluting Balloon Angioplasty for Dysfunctional Hemodialysis Access,” and our host Dr. Christopher Beck discuss the study design, outcomes, and implications for further research in the use of drug eluting balloons (DEBs) for hemodialysis access. In this study, the control group received “plain old balloon angioplasty” (POBA), while the treatment group received angioplasty with Biotronik’s Passeo 18-Lux DEB. Dr. Therasse describes the angiographic endpoints, with primary endpoint as late lumen loss (to measure the degree of restenosis), and secondary endpoints as hemodialysis access failure and mortality at 12 months. He emphasizes that the clinical endpoints of this study were more significant than the angiographic endpoints because they showed that when treating dysfunctional hemodialysis access, there is decreased incidence and severity of restenosis with DEB compared with POBA. Additionally, the doctors walk through obstacles that arose during the study, which included coordination of data collection across multiple centers, low patient enrollment rate, strict exclusion criteria, and the need for re-intervention prior to the standardized follow up date. Dr. Therasse comments on the increasing use of DEBs in clinical practices and their future cost-effectiveness. He also references other helpful articles for interested listeners (linked below). --- RESOURCES Safety and Efficacy of Paclitaxel-Eluting Balloon Angioplasty for Dysfunctional Hemodialysis Access: https://www.jvir.org/article/S1051-0443(20)30961-1/fulltext Drug-Coated Balloons for Dysfunctional Dialysis Arteriovenous Fistulas: https://www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NEJMoa1914617?url_ver=Z39.88-2003&rfr_id=ori:rid:crossref.org&rfr_dat=cr_pub%20%200pubmed The Lutonix AV Randomized Trial of Paclitaxel-Coated Balloons in Arteriovenous Fistula Stenosis: https://www.jvir.org/article/S1051-0443(19)30817-6/fulltext

Ep. 70 CO2 Angiography with Dr. James Caridi

Reflect on how this Podcast applies to your day-to-day and earn AMA PRA Category 1 CMEs here: https://earnc.me/F6p0sz In this episode, Dr. James Caridi joins Dr. Christopher Beck to discuss the benefits of using CO2 for an angiography as well as some important tips for proper use. Dr. Caridi mentions some of the reasons for choosing CO2 rather than contrast, including its solubility, low viscosity, and buoyancy. He also speaks about CO2 angiography approaches for imaging difficult to access vasculature. Dr. Caridi also speaks to specific uses of CO2 angiography for use for mesenteric angiography and how CO2 angiography can improve the sensitivity for detection and localization of GI bleeds. Dr. Caridi and Dr. Beck also discuss some non-vascular uses for CO2 angiography as well as a technique for imaging with CO2 without having to give up wire access. We talk through safely preparing a delivery system and gently injecting CO2 to prevent/reduce reflux in the patient if needed. Finally, we go into some notes concerning dialysis, contrast induced nephropathy, and some instances when CO2 angiography should not be used. Resources mentioned: CO2 Angiography Society http://www.co2angio.org/index.php This website features over 100 pieces of literature related to CO2 angiography, information about the newest developments, and access to membership in the society. Dr. Jim Caridi explains CO2mmander and AngiAssist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjsnHWmRZQI This video explains the portable delivery system and the gas management system.
