Exploring vascular access survival in prevalent thrice-weekly in-centre nocturnal haemodialysis patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study explores vascular access complications in patients established on in-centre nocturnal haemodialysis (INHD) compared to conventional haemodialysis.

Methods

This was a retrospective cohort study; patients acted as their own control. Data were collected from three centres. Adults established on INHD (intervention) preceded by usual daytime haemodialysis (control) were eligible. Data were collected between 01/01/2009 and 12/31/2021. The data collection period was up to 12 months for both control and intervention periods. The primary outcome was a composite of outcomes related to vascular access complications: hospitalisation, intervention, change in vascular access modality, change in dialysis modality and death. The primary outcome was evaluated by time-to
