Popis: BACKGROUND:The Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) guidelines recommend intra-access flow (Qa) measurement as the preferred vascular access surveillance method over static intra-access pressure ratio (SIAPR). Recently, it has become possible to perform Qa measurement during hemodialysis using thermodilution method called blood temperature monitoring (BTM) with the Twister device. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between Qa by BTM and SIAPR and to compare the performance of two tests in prediction of vascular access stenosis. METHODS:The study was performed from January 2016 to November 2017 and included 97 patients with arteriovenous fistulas (AVF). Qa by BTM and SIAPR were simultaneously measured every 1~3 months with a total of 449 measurements during study period. RESULTS:In our study population, mean age was 59.9±10.0 years and 61.9% were diabetes. The mean Qa obtained by BTM was 1186±588 mL/min. There was no correlation between Qa by BTM and venous SIAPR (r = 0.061, P = 0.196). Angiography identified 36 stenotic AVFs (37.1%) among the study subjects. They included 13 cases with only inflow stenosis, 6 with only outflow stenosis, and 17 with stenosis on both sides. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that Qa by BTM had higher discriminative ability to diagnose vascular access stenosis compared to SIAPR (P
