The Natural History of Upper Arm Vessels Following Forearm Loop Arteriovenous
The purpose of this study is to determine whether upper arm vessels increase in size
following forearm loop arteriovenous graft placement, and if they do, characterize the timing
of these changes
following forearm loop arteriovenous graft placement, and if they do, characterize the timing
of these changes
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Age greater than or equal to 19 years
2. Planned forearm loop arteriovenous graft placement for hemodialysis or forearm loop
arteriovenous graft placed within the previous 7 days.
3. Cephalic and/or basilic vein diameter greater than or equal to 2.5 mm at the
antecubital fossa to the axilla prior to AVG placement
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Age less than 19 years
2. Hemodialysis access other than forearm loop graft surgery placement
3. Cephalic and/or basilic vein diameter less than 2.5 mm at any point from the
antecubital fossa to the axilla
4. Prior hemodialysis access surgery in the arm receiving the forearm loop graft
