Dialysis Procedures: New Tools for Better Outcomes

The doctors begin by describing how they create dialysis access and what they account for during the procedure. They then focus on the role of the FLEX VP system, its benefits, and how they use it in practice, touching on the latest clinical data. Dr. Kramer and Dr. Davis also stress the importance of mental health in dialysis care and share ways that we can better support our patients through difficult diagnoses and treatments. In fact, one of their patients, Fred Hill, authored the book “Dialysis Is Not Your Life,” which offers a unique perspective for patients feeling overburdened by dialysis, and the healthcare providers who treat them. The episode concludes with case presentations and practical guidance on when to use the FLEX Vessel Prep system.
