Objective The percutaneous endovascular approach to arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation
is a minimally invasive alternative to surgical AVF creation. This systematic review and meta …

Vascular access is the lifeline for patients on hemodialysis. Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are
the preferred vascular access, but AVF maturation failure remains a significant clinical …

Arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) fail to mature more frequently in female patients compared with
male patients, leading to inferior outcomes and decreased utilization. Since our mouse AVF …

Patients with kidney failure require kidney replacement therapy. While renal transplantation
remains the treatment of choice for kidney failure, renal replacement therapy with …

Background Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) for hemodialysis (HD) are often associated with
better outcomes than arteriovenous grafts (AVGs). We aimed to investigate vascular access …

Aims To determine the effect of virtual reality glasses intervention on pain, vital signs, and
patient satisfaction of hemodialysis patients undergoing AVF catheter puncture. Design …

Objective: We sought to confirm and extend the understanding of clinical outcomes following
creation of a common distal autogenous access, the radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula …

Background and purpose Patients undergoing continuous hemodialysis experience the
arteriovenous fistula puncture-related pain approximately 300 times per year. Pain …

Chronic kidney disease is a widespread terminal illness that afflicts millions of people across
the world. Hemodialysis is the predominant therapeutic management strategy for kidney …

Objective Radiocephalic arteriovenous fistulas have been historically perceived as requiring
multiple follow-up procedural interventions to achieve maturation and maintain patency …
