Effect of local papaverine on arteriovenous fistula maturation in patients with end-stage renal disease.

CONCLUSION: Local papaverine injection increased vessel diameter and blood flow, increasing shearing stress in both arterial and venous segment of recently created AVF. In this way, papaverine probably can decrease AVF maturation time without an increase in complications. PMID: 31498862 [PubMed - in process]
