Project description:Persons with CKD are at a higher risk of developing peripheral artery disease (PAD) and its adverse health outcomes than individuals in the general population who have normal renal function. Classic atherosclerosis risk factors (eg, age, smoking, diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia) are common in patients with CKD, but CKD also imposes additional unique risk factors that promote arterial disease (eg, chronic inflammation, hypoalbuminemia, and a procalcific state). Current nephrology clinical practice is adversely affected by PAD diagnostic challenges, the complexities of managing 2 serious comorbid diseases, delayed vascular specialist referral, and slow PAD treatment initiation in patients with CKD. Persons with CKD are less likely to be provided recommended "optimal" PAD care. The knowledge that both limb and mortality outcomes are significantly worse in patients with CKD, especially those on dialysis, is not just a biologic fact but can serve as a care delivery call to action. Nephrologists can facilitate positive change. This article proposes that patients with PAD and CKD be strategically comanaged by care teams that encompass the skills to create and use evidence-based care pathways. This proposed collaborative multidisciplinary approach will include vascular medicine specialists, nephrologists, wound specialists, and mid-level providers. Just as clinical care quality metrics have served as the base for ESRD and acute MI quality improvement, it is time that such quality outcomes metrics be initiated for the large PAD-CKD population. This new system will identify and resolve key gaps in the current care model so that clinical outcomes improve within a cost-effective care frame for this vulnerable population.

Project description:Background Peripheral vascular intervention (PVI) is occasionally required to facilitate delivery system insertion or to treat vascular complications during transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TF-TAVR). However, the impact of PVI on outcomes is not well understood. Therefore, we aimed to compare outcomes between TF-TAVR with versus without PVI and between TF-TAVR with PVI versus non-TF-TAVR. Methods and Results We retrospectively reviewed 2386 patients who underwent TAVR with a balloon-expandable valve at a single institution from 2016 to 2020. The primary outcomes were death and major adverse cardiac/cerebrovascular event (MACCE), defined as death, myocardial infarction, or stroke. Of 2246 TF-TAVR recipients, 136 (6.1%) required PVI (89% bailout treatment). During follow-up (median 23.0 months), there were no significant differences between TF-TAVR with and without PVI in death (15.4% versus 20.7%; adjusted HR [aHR], 0.96 [95% CI, 0.58-1.58]) or MACCE (16.9% versus 23.0%; aHR, 0.84 [95% CI, 0.52-1.36]). However, compared with non-TF-TAVR (n=140), TF-TAVR with PVI carried significantly lower rates of death (15.4% versus 40.7%; aHR, 0.42 [95% CI, 0.24-0.75]) and MACCE (16.9% versus 45.0%; aHR, 0.40 [95% CI, 0.23-0.68]). Landmark analyses demonstrated lower outcome rates following TF-TAVR with PVI than non-TF-TAVR both within 60 days (death 0.7% versus 5.7%, P=0.019; MACCE 0.7% versus 9.3%; P=0.001) and thereafter (death 15.0% versus 38.9%, P=0.014; MACCE 16.5% versus 41.3%, P=0.013). Conclusions The need for PVI during TF-TAVR is not uncommon, mainly due to the bailout treatment for vascular complications. PVI is not associated with worse outcomes in TF-TAVR recipients. Even when PVI is required, TF-TAVR is associated with better short- and intermediate-term outcomes than non-TF-TAVR.

Project description:Background & aimsRenal disease is a risk factor for peripheral artery disease (PAD), yet its impact on outcomes after lower extremity (LE) revascularization is not well established. We aimed to characterize the association between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and/or end stage renal disease (ESRD) and post-procedural outcomes in PAD patients undergoing LE revascularization in the United States.MethodsAdults age ≥18 years undergoing surgical or endovascular LE revascularization for PAD with and without CKD or ESRD were identified from the 2014 Nationwide Readmissions Database. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of death, myocardial infarction or ischemic stroke, were identified for patients with and without renal disease. All-cause hospital readmissions within 6 months of discharge were determined for all survivors.ResultsAmong 39,441 patients with PAD hospitalized for LE revascularization, 10,530 had renal disease (26.7%), of whom 69% had CKD without ESRD and 31% had ESRD. Patients with renal disease were more likely to have MACE after LE revascularization (5.2% vs. 2.5%; adjusted OR [aOR] 1.74, 95% CI 1.40-2.16), require LE amputation (26.1% vs. 12.2%; aOR 1.33, 95% CI 1.19-1.50), and require hospital readmission within 6 months (61.0% vs. 43.6%; adjusted HR [aHR] 1.38, 95% CI 1.28-1.48) compared to those without renal disease.ConclusionsRenal disease is common among patients undergoing LE revascularization for PAD and was independently associated with in-hospital MACE, LE amputation, and hospital readmission within 6 months. Additional efforts to improve outcomes of patients with renal disease and PAD requiring LE revascularization are necessary.

Project description:Discontinuation of acute, unplanned dialysis is always an important therapeutic goal in dialysis-requiring patients with existing chronic kidney disease. Only a limited proportion of patients could be weaned off dialysis and remained dialysis-free. Here we performed a multicenter, observational study to investigate factors associated with successful weaning from acute dialysis, and to explore the potential impact of weaning itself on outcomes of patients with chronic kidney disease following urgent-start dialysis. We recruited 440 chronic kidney disease patients with a baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate <45 ml/min per 1/73 m2, and used propensity score-adjusted Cox regression analysis to measure the effect of weaning from acute dialysis on death during the index hospitalization and death or readmission after discharge. Over 2 years, 64 of 421 (15.2%) patients who survived >1 month died, and 36 (8.6%) were removed from dialysis, with 26 (6.2%) remaining alive and dialysis-free. Logistic regression analysis found that age ≧ 65 years, ischemic acute tubular necrosis, nephrotoxic exposure, urinary obstruction, and higher predialysis estimated glomerular filtration rate and serum hemoglobin were predictors of weaning off dialysis. After adjustment for propensity scores for dialysis weaning, Cox proportional hazards models showed successful weaning from dialysis (adjusted hazard ratio 0.06; 95% confidence interval 0.01 to 0.35), along with a history of hypertension and serum albumin, were independent protectors for early death. Conversely, a history of stroke, peripheral arterial disease and cancer predicted the occurrence of early mortality. In conclusion, this prospective cohort study shows that compared to patients with chronic kidney disease who became end-stage renal disease after acute dialysis, patients who could be weaned off acute dialytic therapy were associated with reduced risk of premature death over a 2-year observation period.

Project description:BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) is very common in patients who are at a high risk of developing incident heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, the harmful effect of CKD on incident HFrEF has not yet been examined among patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).MethodsPatients undergoing PCI with baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 40% were included from January 2007 to December 2018 (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04407936). We defined incident HFrEF as a follow-up LVEF of <40% within 3-12 months after discharge. Multivariable logistical regression was performed to examine the association of CKD with incident HFrEF.ResultsOverall, of 2,356 patients (mean age 62.4 ± 10.7 years, 22.2% women), 435 (18.5%) had CKD, and 83 (3.5%) developed incident HFrEF following PCI. The rate of incident HFrEF in the CKD group was higher than that in the non-CKD group (6.9 vs. 2.8%; p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that CKD was an independent risk factor of incident HFrEF [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.75; 95% CI, 1.03-2.92; p = 0.035] after adjustment for confounders including age, gender, diabetes, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, congestive heart failure (CHF), baseline LVEF, ACEI/ARB, and statins. Furthermore, patients with incident HFrEF have a higher ratio of all-cause mortality compared to those without HFrEF (26.5 vs. 8.1%; p < 0.001).ConclusionsOur results suggested that CKD was associated with increased risk of incident HFrEF, which was related to higher all-cause mortality in patients with CAD undergoing PCI. On this basis, more aggressive measures should be taken to prevent patients with CKD undergoing PCI from developing HFrEF.

Project description:PurposePatients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are known to be at higher risk for peripheral artery disease (PAD), amputations, and major adverse cardiovascular events, though it is unclear whether they are at any higher risk for repeat intervention. LIBERTY 360 offered an opportunity to study a real-world cohort of patients who underwent distal superficial femoral artery endovascular revascularizations. We aimed to describe patients with DM, their outcomes following peripheral vascular intervention, and the effect of DM on outcomes in the LIBERTY 360 cohort.MethodsLIBERTY 360 is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, mono-industry funded observational study of patients undergoing endovascular revascularization. Outcomes included 30-day and 1-year all-cause mortality, major amputation, target vessel/lesion revascularization, and a composite of those events. A multivariable regression model including DM was constructed to examine the effect of DM on outcomes. Multivariable survival estimates were made using Cox proportional hazards models.ResultsA total of 1,204 patients were enrolled, of whom 727 had DM (60.4%). Patients with DM had significantly more comorbidities and a third required insulin for DM management. Patients with DM had more severe disease based on Rutherford classification at baseline. After adjusting for comorbidities and disease severity, DM patients had more frequent major amputations at 1 year (5.2% versus 1.2%; HR 2.71, 95%CI 1.05-6.98, p = 0.040). The 1-year rates of all-cause mortality and target vessel/lesion revascularization were not significantly higher for patients with DM.ConclusionsDiabetes mellitus was associated with increased major amputations at 1 year following endovascular revascularization after accounting for demographics, comorbidities, and PAD-related characteristics. Further research is needed to determine which aspects of PAD and DM are most strongly associated with poor outcomes following lower extremity revascularization.

Project description:ObjectivePatients undergoing peripheral vascular intervention (PVI) (ie, endovascular revascularization) for symptomatic lower extremity peripheral artery disease remain at high risk for major adverse limb and cardiovascular events. High-quality evidence demonstrates the addition of a low-dose oral factor Xa inhibitor to single antiplatelet therapy, termed dual pathway inhibition (DPI), reduces the incidence of major adverse events in this population. This study aims to describe the longitudinal trends in factor Xa inhibitor initiation after PVI, identify patient and procedural characteristics associated with factor Xa inhibitor use, and describe temporal trends in antithrombic therapy post-PVI before vs after VOYAGER PAD.MethodsThis retrospective cross-sectional study was performed using data from the Vascular Quality Initiative PVI registry from January 2018 through June 2022. Multivariate logistic regression was utilized to determine predictors of factor Xa inhibitor initiation following PVI, reported as odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).ResultsA total of 91,569 PVI procedures were deemed potentially eligible for factor Xa inhibitor initiation and were included in this analysis. Overall rates of factor Xa inhibitor initiation after PVI increased from 3.5% in 2018 to 9.1% in 2022 (P < .0001). The strongest positive predictors of factor Xa inhibitor initiation after PVI were non-elective (OR, 4.36; 95% CI, 4.06-4.68; P < .0001) or emergent (OR, 8.20; 95% CI, 7.14-9.41; P < .0001) status. The strongest negative predictor was postoperative dual antiplatelet therapy prescription (OR, 0.20; 95% CI, 0.17-0.23; P < .0001), highlighting significant hesitation about use of DPI after PVI and limited translation of VOYAGER PAD findings into clinical practice. Antiplatelet medications remain the most common antithrombotic regimen after PVI, with almost 70% of subjects discharged on dual antiplatelet therapy and approximately 20% discharged on single antiplatelet therapy.ConclusionsFactor Xa inhibitor initiation after PVI has increased in recent years, although the absolute rate remains low, and most eligible patients are not prescribed this treatment.

Project description:ObjectiveThe current study aimed to determine the relationship between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and major 12-month outcomes for patients with in-hospital treatment for symptomatic peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD).MethodsAn analysis of the prospective longitudinal multicentric cohort study with 12-month follow-up was conducted including patients who underwent endovascular or open surgery for symptomatic PAOD at 35 German vascular centres (initial study protocol: NCT03098290). Severity of CKD was grouped into four stages combining information about the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at baseline and dialysis dependency. Outcomes included overall mortality as well as the two composite endpoints of amputation or death, and of major cardiovascular events (MACE). 12-month incidences and adjusted hazard ratios were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier function and Cox proportional hazard models.ResultsA total of 4354 patients (32% female, 69 years mean age, 68% intermittent claudication, 69% percutaneous endovascular revascularisation) were included and followed for 244 days in median. Thereof, 22% had any CKD and 5% had end stage kidney disease (ESKD) at baseline. The 12-month overall mortality rate was 3.6% (95% CI 2.3-4.9) with 96 events in the entire cohort: 147 were amputated or died (5.3%, 95% CI 5.2-5.3), and 277 had a MACE (9.5%, 95% CI 9.4-9.5). When compared with patients without kidney disease, ESKD was significantly associated with overall mortality (HR 1.9; 95% CI 1.1-3.5), amputation or death (HR 2.4; 95% CI 1.4-4.1), and MACE (HR 2.0; 95% CI 1.3-3.2).ConclusionsIn the current study on mid-term outcomes after invasive revascularisation for symptomatic PAOD, one out of five patients suffered from any CKD while those few with ESKD had twice the odds of death, of amputation or death, and of major adverse cardiovascular events after twelve months. These results emphasise that concomitant CKD and its impact on outcomes should be considered by severity while mild and moderate grades should not lead to ineffectual treatment strategies.

Project description:BackgroundThere is a paucity of data examining the impact of advancing chronic kidney disease stages on outcomes following revascularization for acute limb ischemia. The present study examined the association of chronic kidney disease with in-hospital mortality, amputation, and resource utilization following revascularization for acute limb ischemia using a nationally representative cohort.MethodsThe 2016-2018 National Inpatient Sample was queried to identify all adult hospitalizations with lower extremity acute limb ischemia requiring surgical and/or endovascular interventions. Patients were grouped according to the presence of chronic kidney disease and its severity: no chronic kidney disease, chronic kidney disease 1-3 (chronic kidney disease stages 1 through 3), chronic kidney disease 4-5 (chronic kidney disease stages 4 through 5), and end-stage renal disease. Multivariable logistic and linear models were used to evaluate association of chronic kidney disease stage with outcomes of interest.ResultsOf an estimated 82,610 patients meeting study criteria, 14.8% had chronic kidney disease (chronic kidney disease 1-3: 63.4%, chronic kidney disease 4-5: 12.1%, end-stage renal disease: 24.5%). Compared to those with chronic kidney disease, chronic kidney disease patients were on average older, were more frequently female, and had a higher median Elixhauser Comorbidity Index. Increasing severity of chronic kidney disease was associated with a stepwise increase in unadjusted mortality rates (4.7% in no chronic kidney disease to 12.6% in end-stage renal disease, P < .001). Following risk adjustment, only end-stage renal disease was associated with increased odds of mortality (adjusted odds ratio 3.10, 95% confidence interval 2.28-4.22) and limb amputation (adjusted odds ratio 1.99, 95% confidence interval 1.59-2.48) compared to patients with no chronic kidney disease. Similarly, advancing chronic kidney disease stage conferred increased odds of prolonged length of stay and greater hospitalization costs.ConclusionAdvanced renal dysfunction demonstrated inferior perioperative outcomes and greater health care expenditures in the study population. These findings imply that quality improvement efforts in acute limb ischemia revascularization should target patients with chronic kidney disease 4-5 and end-stage renal disease.

Project description:Cardiovascular (CV) disease remains an important cause of morbidity and mortality for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although clustering of traditional risk factors with CKD is well recognized, kidney-specific mechanisms are believed to drive the disproportionate burden of CV disease. One perturbation that is frequently observed at high rates in patients with CKD is vascular calcification, which may be a central mediator for an array of CV sequelae. This review summarizes the pathophysiological bases of intimal and medial vascular calcification in CKD, current strategies for diagnosis and management, and posits vascular calcification as a risk marker and therapeutic target.
