this may be a stupid question but looking at both how can you tell which is artery and which is vein? Also, anastimosis...if you connect both, what happens to the flow? Mix oxygnated vs non-oxygentated blood?
@fornow100000 Mixed oxygenated because there is no oxygen extraction via the fistula. AV fistulas are primarily to engorge the veins and allow for easier access for dialysis.
@em9sphere TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF THERE'S ONLY A COUPLE OF PLACES THEY CAN PUT A FISTULA OR GRAFT!! Once you finish those 10 places your doomed!! Lets hope not take care!
much rather cannulate a graft any day than a fistula. fistulas are a pain in the butt, needles come out easier esp. with high blood pressure and increases risk for tech or nurse needle stick
I search up afv standing for Americas funniest video and this pop up

The native vein is much better than a graft.Graft tend to clot off more.
