Summary

Autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular pathway type for maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. The K/DOQI guidelines suggest that the use of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) as the primary treatment for AVF stenosis is reasonable. However, the durability of PTA is limited. In order to reduce the risk of dysfunction recurrence after the intervention, there have been reports in recent years that drug-coated balloons (DCB) are used in the treatment of vascular stenosis in hemodialysis. Multiple factors have limited the efficacy of DCB. Previous studies on the related factors of hemodialysis access stenosis showed that Dyslipidemia was significantly related to the short initial patency rate, and Dyslipidemia was an important predictor of secondary patency loss. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors are a new type of lipid-lowering drug that can prevent vascular calcification. Previous studies have shown that PCSK9 inhibitors have good lipid-lowering effects in both MHD patients and nondialysis patients, and the use of PSK9 inhibitors at the same dose as nondialysis patients is safe in MHD patients. There are currently few studies on the use of paclitaxel-releasing balloon dilation combined with PCSK9 inhibitors to improve autologous internal fistula. Therefore, the investigators applied a prospective, randomized, and controlled study method to preliminarily explore the effect of paclitaxel releasing balloon combined with PCSK9 inhibitor on improving the postoperative patency rate of AVF and the safety of the combined application.

Conditions
