Patient-specific computational haemodynamics associated with surgical creation of an arteriovenous fistula
2021-06-18
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Despite arteriovenous fistulae (AVF) being the preferred vascular access for haemodialysis, high primary failure rates (30-70%) and low one-year patency rates (40-70%) hamper their use. The haemodynamics within the vessels of the fistula change significantly following surgical creation of the anastomosis and can be a surrogate of AVF success or failure. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD...
