Abstract:

Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred vascular access for maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The vascular selection and evaluation before AVF establishment, the maturity assessment after AVF establishment, the timely treatment of AVF mature disorders, and the timely monitoring, location, and treatment of complications during AVF use, are all crucial for the MHD treatment. Ultrasound has the advantages of convenience, non-invasiveness, safety, and economy in evaluating vascular anatomy and blood flow, and is helpful for selecting AVF vessels, assessing the maturity of AVF, discovering the AVF maturity disorders and their causes, detecting and locating postoperative complications, guiding the treatment of mature disorders and complications, improving the success rate of AVF establishment, and ensuring the proceeding of MHD. This article reviewed the current status and prospect of the clinical application of conventional ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in the AVF of MHD patients in recent years.

Key words: Arteriovenous fistula, Ultrasound, Contrast-enhanced ultrasound
