An AV (arteriovenous) fistula for hemodialysis is a surgical procedure where an artery and vein are surgically connected, creating a stronger blood vessel for efficient blood flow during dialysis. The benefits of an AV fistula include improved access for hemodialysis, reduced risk of infection, and better long-term outcomes compared to other access methods like catheters. The procedure typically takes a few hours, and recovery time may vary, with the fistula usually maturing and becoming ready for use in about 6-8 weeks. Symptoms that might indicate the need for an AV fistula include difficulty finding veins for dialysis, repeated dialysis failures, or frequent infections from other access points. Dr. Ashish Kumar, a skilled urologist, is experienced in performing AV fistula surgeries. His expertise ensures that patients receive the best possible care, resulting in more efficient dialysis and an overall improvement in their kidney care management.
