“…Indeed, recent studies report that age does not significantly alter the rates of primary and secondary patency. 11,21,41,42 A retrospective study of 688 patients found that, among three age groups (<65, ⩾65-75, and ⩾75 years), those with ⩾75 years had no different chances of 1-, 3-, and 5-year primary and secondary patency. 21 Qian et al 11 reported similar results in a large retrospective study with 43,851 hemodialysis patients assembled from the US Renal Data System.…”

Hemodialysis vascular access in elderly patients: A comprehensive review

et al. 2022

The number of elderly patients initiating hemodialysis (HD) increased considerably over the past decade. Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are the preferred vascular access (VA) type in most HD patients. Choice of VA for older hemodialysis patients presents a challenge. The higher incidence of comorbidities, longer AVF maturation times, risk of primary failure, risk of patency loss, and shorter life expectancy are important factors to consider. In this review we provide a comprehensive analysis on maturation rates, primary failure, patency, and mortality regarding vascular access in patients older than 75 years of age.
