Clearing A Blocked Dialysis Access With A Support Stent

Connecticut rates for HCPCS 36906

This procedure clears a blood clot from a dialysis access site, such as a surgically created connection between an artery and vein used for dialysis, and places a small mesh tube called a stent to help hold the vessel open afterward. Working through a catheter, the physician breaks up and removes the clot, then positions the stent to maintain blood flow through the access. It helps keep a dialysis access site usable so treatments are not interrupted.
