UC Health Researcher Receives $150K to Study Dialysis Improvement
Researchers at the University of Cincinnati and the Cincinnati Department
of Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Center have received funding to study the
care processes that lead to placement of arteriovenous fistulas in patients
beginning dialysis.
Timmy Lee, MD, UC Health nephrologist, staff VA physician and lead
investigator on the study, was awarded the National Kidney Foundation’s Young
Investigator Award—totaling $150,000 over three years—to look at ways to improve access placement
in patients starting dialysis for the first time.
