“…Our result went in disagreement with Culp et al, [19] who specifically described predialysis diastolic pressure as a predictor of risk of thrombosis in AVFs and grafts in the first year after creation. Puskar et al, [20] also reported that a low mean diastolic pressure correlated with poorer AVF survival after exclusion of patients with early fistula failure from the study.…”

Background: Autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is gold standard to maintain vascular access for hemodialysis. Actually, creating this type of access is considered very vital for haemodialysis patients. It enables them to avoid serious complication of long use of haemodialysis catheters e.g. local and systemic infections as well as unachieved required dialysis adequacy. Aim of Study:The aim of this study was to assess venous pressure as predictor of secondary arterio venous fistula malfunction in hemodialysis patients clinically.Patients and Methods: This study was designed to assess venous pressure as predictor of secondary arteriovenous fistula malfunction in hemodialysis patients clinically. The study has been conducted on a total of 83 patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) maintained on regular hemodialysis four hours thrice weekly through AVF. They were dialyzed through a native AVF by Freseinus 4008S Machine, using bicarbonate dialysis solution at the Dialysis Unit at
