The document discusses various complications that can occur with arteriovenous vascular access for hemodialysis patients. It describes immediate post-surgery complications like hemorrhage and low venous flow. Late complications include infections, aneurysm formation, fistula vein stenosis, congestive heart failure, steal syndrome, ischemic neuropathy, and thrombosis. The document also outlines various physical findings that are associated with different forms of access dysfunction.
