What is P1338elderly Patients, Upper Limb Isometric Exercises And Arteriovenous Fistula Maturation about?
## Abstract ## Background and Aims: Introduction Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation may be controversial in elderly population, given their comorbidities, reduced life expectancy and vascular access (VA) complications. Postoperative upper limbs isometric exercise improves AVF maturation. Nevertheless, scarce scientific evidence has been reported about their utility in elderly population until date. ## Objectives To assess the effect of a postoperative isometric exercises program on native VA maturation in our patients older than 75 years old with stages 5-5D chronic kidney disease. ## Method A 24 months prospective single-center study. After surgery, all patients were randomized to an isometric exercise group (EG) or a control group (CG). Isometric exercises protocolled programm, was performed in EG. CO received usual care. Demographical data, muscle strength using handgrip (HG) dynamometer, main Doppler ultrasound (DUS) measurements (outflow vein (OV) diameter and humeral artery blood flow rate (BFR), clinical and DUS maturation as well as medical (hematoma, stenosis, thrombosis, pseudoaneurysm, aneurysm) or surgical VA complications were assessed at 8 weeks postoperatively. ##
