Willingness to participate in a randomized trial comparing catheters to fistulas for vascular access in incident hemodialysis patients: an international survey of nephrologists [PDF]
, 2016 BACKGROUND: Current guidelines favor fistulas over catheters as vascular access. Yet, the observational literature comparing fistulas to catheters has important limitations and biases that may be difficult to overcome in the absence of randomization ...

EFFECT OF HEPARIN ON THE PATENCY OF ARTERIOVENOUS FISTULA [PDF]
Acta Medica Iranica, 2008 "nPatients with end stage renal disease need a good vascular access for hemodialysis. Arteriovenous fistula is the method of choice for vascular access in these patients. However, failure of arteriovenous fistula due to thrombosis is a major problem.

Hemodynamic wall shear stress profiles influence the magnitude and pattern of stenosis in a pig AV fistula [PDF]
, 2008 Venous stenosis is a significant problem in arteriovenous fistulae, likely due to anatomical configuration and wall shear stress profiles. To identify linkages between wall shear stress and the magnitude and pattern of vascular stenosis, we produced ...

Outcome of Kidney Allografts in Recipients With a Femoral Arteriovenous Fistula: Report of Two Cases
Urology Case Reports, 2016 Two patients, who were on hemodialysis over a femoral arteriovenous fistula, were transplanted in our center. Despite adequate blood pressure, perfusion of the renal allograft remained poor after completion of the vascular anastomoses.

Immediate access arteriovenous grafts versus tunnelled central venous catheters: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial [PDF]
, 2015 Background Autologous arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) are the optimal form of vascular access for haemodialysis. AVFs typically require 6 to 8 weeks to “mature” from the time of surgery before they can be cannulated.
