Abstract

At the end of 2013, approximately 421,000 persons in the United States with end stage renal disease (ESRD) were treated with hemodialysis, with the number of patients requiring hemodialysis expected to increase in the foreseeable future. The mortality rate for ESRD patients receiving dialysis has been declining since 2002. Though the incidence of ESRD has plateaued since 2010, the improved survival has led to a rising prevalence of hemodialysis patients. There has been a corresponding growth in the number of fluoroscopically-guided hemodialysis access interventions. Strategies to minimize radiation exposure during fluoroscopy guided dialysis access interventions will be discussed.
