A systematic review and meta-analysis of systemic intraoperative anticoagulation during arteriovenous access formation for dialysis (2015)
Journal Article
Smith, G. E., Souroullos, P., Cayton, T., Harwood, A., Carradice, D., & Chetter, I. C. (2016). A systematic review and meta-analysis of systemic intraoperative anticoagulation during arteriovenous access formation for dialysis. The journal of vascular access, 17(1), 1-5. https://doi.org/10.5301/jva.5000484

Purpose: Surgical arteriovenous fistula (AVF) or graft (AVG) is preferred to a central venous catheter for dialysis access. Surgical access may suffer thrombosis early after placement and systemic anticoagulation during surgical access formation may...

Systematic review of compression following treatment for varicose veins (2015)
Journal Article
El-Sheikha, J., Carradice, D., Nandhra, S., Leung, C., Smith, G., Campbell, B., & Chetter, I. (2015). Systematic review of compression following treatment for varicose veins. British journal of surgery, 102(7), 719-725. https://doi.org/10.1002/bjs.9788

Background Consensus regarding compression following treatment of varicose veins has yet to be reached. This systematic review aims to establish the optimal compression regimen after venous treatment. Methods A systematic review of MEDLINE, Embase an...

A randomized clinical trial of endovenous laser ablation versus conventional surgery for small saphenous varicose veins (2015)
Journal Article
Nandhra, S., El-sheikha, J., Carradice, D., Wallace, T., Souroullas, P., Samuel, N., Smith, G., & Chetter, I. C. (2015). A randomized clinical trial of endovenous laser ablation versus conventional surgery for small saphenous varicose veins. Journal of vascular surgery, 61(3), 741-746. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvs.2014.09.037

Background: This randomized clinical trial compared endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) and surgical ligation with attempted stripping in the treatment of small saphenous vein (SSV) insufficiency. The early results demonstrated that EVLA was more likely... Read More about A randomized clinical trial of endovenous laser ablation versus conventional surgery for small saphenous varicose veins.

Compression regimes after endovenous ablation for superficial venous insufficiency – A survey of members of the Vascular Society of Great Britain and Ireland (2015)
Journal Article
El-Sheikha, J., Nandhra, S., Carradice, D., Acey, C., Smith, G., Campbell, B., & Chetter, I. (2016). Compression regimes after endovenous ablation for superficial venous insufficiency – A survey of members of the Vascular Society of Great Britain and Ireland. Phlebology, 31(1), 16-22. https://doi.org/10.1177/0268355514567732

Introduction: The optimal compression regime following ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy (UGFS), radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) for varicose veins is not known. The aim of this study was to document current prac...
