Comparison of arteriovenous fistulae having blood flow equalto and higher than 800 ml / min as regards clinical and laboratory parameters

ABSTRACT

Background: According to KDOQI guidelines, the lower limit of arteriovenous fistula blood flow accounting for 600 ml / min. We have observed that this limit was not enough, at least for our patients. The aim of this work was to prove the hypothesis that this limit must be higher for performing adequate dialysis
