“…This flow can increase to 600 to 1200 ml/min. 3,5,16 The following process is an increase in wall shear stress and pressure on the vein walls caused by increased blood flow in the veins. Wall shear stress is a friction pressure produced by blood against the walls of the blood vessels in the same direction as the flow.…”

Arteriovenous Shunt (AV Shunt) is a minor surgical operation that connects (creating anastomoses) the arteries and veins in the arm or other body part for the purpose of making connection access for hemodialysis. AV shunt is the primary choice in establishing vascular access for hemodialysis in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Therefore, this study aims to review the arteriovenous shunt as a hemodialysis access option in CKD patients. The literature study was conducted by searching various written sources, whether in the form of books, archives, articles and journals, or documents relevant to the problem being studied. The mortality rate after AV shunt is 0%, even though it still has postoperative complications. Based on the location of the operation, making the AV shunt is prioritized on the distal part that is not dominant to minimize the damage to the AV shunt. The location of the wrist, namely the brachiocephalic, is a top priority in making an AV shunt because it has many advantages. AV shunt is the primary choice of vascular access for hemodialysis in patients with chronic kidney disease. It is hoped that through the AV shunt, the life expectancy of patients with CKD can be increased, and patients with CKD must receive support from other disciplines such as interns, psychologists, and the patient's family.
