Use of Arterio-venous Fistula as First Choice for Intravenous Drug Administration in Kidney Transplant Recipients (PerFAV)

January 19, 2017 updated by: University Hospital, Angers
Use of arteriovenous fistula for IV drug administration is controversial and often prohibited by nephrologists. However, we have been using this method in our department for years now in order to keep the patients 'veins for other fistulas in the future. The aim of this study is to evaluate our practice and maybe provide a justification for a larger multi-center study given the importance of this subject in patients with chronic renal failure.
