    Autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the preferred dialysis access for maintenance hemodialysis patients.

  • 2

    A well-functioning AVF improves dialysis adequacy and enhances the quality of life for patients.

  • 3

    The study included 15 articles, extracting 28 best evidence items across six management aspects for AVF failure prevention.

  • 4

    AVF failure is a primary cause of hospitalization for hemodialysis patients, affecting dialysis quality and patient prognosis.

  • 5

    The study aims to provide a systematic evidence-based approach for medical staff to formulate management plans for AVF failure.
