Two-year cumulative patency of endovascular arteriovenous fistula
Journal of Vascular Access, 2019 Background and objectives: The recent advent of a device to create a proximal radial artery arteriovenous fistula using an endovascular approach to create the anastomosis represents a significant advance in dialysis access creation.

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.

Influence of Long-term Cytotoxic Chemotherapy on the Condition of Peripheral Venous Channel [PDF]
, 2017 The necessity of long-term venous access in cancer patients appears at frequent and long-term courses of cytotoxic therapy. Peripheral veins of forearms are most often used for these aims. The conditions of peripheral venous channel in 32 cancer patients,

Novel Endovascular Techniques for Dialysis Access-Associated Steal Syndrome (DASS)
Dr. Sulaiman Al Habib Medical Journal, 2023 End-stage renal disease patients with arteriovenous fistula (AVF) encounter many vascular risks related to reduced or increased arteriovenous fistula flow. Dialysis access-associated steal syndrome is one of the devastating complications that may lead to

Patient-Related Barriers to Timely Dialysis Access Preparation: A Qualitative Study of the Perspectives of Patients, Family Members, and Health Care Providers [PDF]
, 2019 Rational & Objective A key aspect of smooth transition to dialysis is the timely creation of a permanent access. Despite early referral to kidney care, initiation onto dialysis is still suboptimal for many patients, which has clinical and cost ...

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.
