Arteriovenous Grafts' Types of Indications and Their Infection Rate
Original language description
Background: Arteriovenous graft infection is a well-known and frequent complication. The objective of this study was to compare infection rates of primary and secondary indicated arteriovenous grafts (AVGs). Subjects and Methods: Retrospectively, we evaluated the indications for AVGs created at our institution which became infected. One hundred forty AVGs were evaluated. Of these AVGs, 33 (23.6%) were primary and 107 (76.4%) secondary indicated. Results: Infection of a primary AVG was detected in 5 patients (15.2 %). Infection of a secondary AVG was detected in 30 patients (28.0%). Primary and secondary patency were significantly lower in patients with infected AVG (P = 0.006; P = 0.0001). The effect of diabetes mellitus and age on development of infection was not confirmed. Conclusions: Indications for AVG creation clearly influence the future risk of infection. If the indication to use the AVG is to correct a complicated arteriovenous fistula, the risk of infection is 2 times higher.
