00:12 - How to Care for a Dialysis Fistula?
- For patients with kidney failure, dialysis is a lifeline.
- The most critical method for dialysis is through a fistula.
- A fistula is created by connecting two blood vessels.
- Once matured, a fistula can assist patients for up to 10 years continuously.
- Sometimes, there may be swelling in the dialysis fistula.
- Occasionally, there might be immature tissue leading to infection.
- Post-dialysis swelling in the fistula can be due to a blockage in the vein.
- Treatment is possible if there is any obstruction in the fistula.
01:13 - What is Dialysis Fistula Aneurysm?
- The vessel wall weakens, causing it to balloon like a bubble.
- Timely repair of this condition is possible.
- If you have any issues with your dialysis fistula, consult a nearby vascular specialist.
