WCN25-1787 Risk factors and outcomes of arteriovenous fistula failure – a cross-sectional study from a tertiary care centre in South India
Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) access is a lifeline for patients on hemodialysis given its lesser rates of infection and mortality as compared to central venous catheters and arteriovenous grafts. However, AVF failure can significantly influence patients’ prognosis. Hence, this study aims to identify potential risk factors for AVF failure and assess outcomes in such patients.
