Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description

Number of Patients on Dialysis Using the Arteriovenous Fistula or Has Adequate Access Flow Rate to Allow Dialysis
Time Frame: 3 months
Arteriovenous fistula is mature or has achieved a minimum clinically acceptable access flow rate as determined by doppler ultrasound assessment to support dialysis
3 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Patients Requiring Additional Interventions to Achieve Maturation and Dialysis Access
Time Frame: 12 weeks
