AV fistula and the associated fear of dialysis. | Dr. Pratim Sengupta
AV Fistula, or arteriovenous fistula, is a surgical connection between an artery and a vein, commonly used for hemodialysis in patients with kidney disease. However, some individuals develop a fear or phobia surrounding this procedure. This fear may stem from concerns about pain, complications, or anxiety related to medical procedures or the fact of heading toward Dialysis. It is essential to address these fears by seeking accurate information from healthcare professionals, discussing concerns openly, and considering counseling or therapy if needed. Understanding the benefits of AV fistula, its success rates, and the importance of dialysis in managing kidney disease can help alleviate fears and promote a healthier mindset toward this medical intervention.
