Balloon angioplasty is the standard of care in AV access maintenance. Although a successful PTA procedure may provide a positive immediate result, recurrent stenosis with reduced patency is common, and can often lead to repeat intervention with 6-month patency rates from 25-78%. This panel will discuss the use of FLEX Vessel Prep procedure demonstrating improved outcomes in real- world patients.

Speakers and Panel Members:

• Moderator: John Aruny, MD, Dialysis Access Institute, Regional Medical Center, Orangeburg, South Carolina
• John Ross, MD, Medical Director, The Regional Medical Center, Orangeburg, South Carolina - Data deep dive and FLEX Vessel prep in AV real world use
