Sponsor's own description

For chronic hemodialysis patients, the creation of a well-functioning arteriovenous (AV) fistula is critical for ensuring that patient receive adequate hemodialysis. Unfortunately, the primary failure rate for AV fistulas after surgery is about 40%, and this percentage has not changed despite a number of trials of pharmaceutical agents and biologic agents. A key to success in the development of a useable AV fistula is an adequate arterial and venous diameter in the access forearm. Although exercise is commonly used to increase vessel diameter after AV fistula placement, Investigators are unaware of published studies that report on the effect of exercise prior to AV fistula placement to assist with the maturation of a newly created AV fistula. In this pilot trial, the Principal Investigator will evaluate the feasibility and possible benefits of pre-surgical exercise on forearm AV fistulas.
