The role of wall shear stress in the failure of arteriovenous fistula for hemodialysis vascular access
2016-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Native arteriovenous fistulas created in the forearm between the radial artery and the cephalic vein are currently considered the best vascular access for hemodialysis in terms of outcome and safety. However, this type of access is associated with a significant failure rate that is generally caused by intimal hyperplasia development and consequent stenosis. Computational studies have shown that intimal hyperplasia...
