A systematic review and meta-analysis of systemic intraoperative anticoagulation during arteriovenous access formation for dialysis (2015)
Journal Article
Smith, G. E., Souroullos, P., Cayton, T., Harwood, A., Carradice, D., & Chetter, I. C. (2016). A systematic review and meta-analysis of systemic intraoperative anticoagulation during arteriovenous access formation for dialysis. The journal of vascular access, 17(1), 1-5. https://doi.org/10.5301/jva.5000484

Purpose: Surgical arteriovenous fistula (AVF) or graft (AVG) is preferred to a central venous catheter for dialysis access. Surgical access may suffer thrombosis early after placement and systemic anticoagulation during surgical access formation may...
