Contemporary Strategies to Promote Dialysis Access Fistula Maturation
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Vascular and Endovascular Surgery"
DOI: 10.1177/15385744211037834
Abstract: Background: The inability of a newly created arteriovenous fistula to support hemodialysis due to non-maturation results in increased complications secondary to catheter dependence. Methods: In view of the highly variable approaches by providers with heterogenous… read more here.
