Neuromuscular Electrostimulation in Radiocephalic Fistula

Arteriovenous Fistula

* Objective: To analyze the effect of neuromuscular electrostimulation in the maturation of radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (RC-AVF) patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5-5D * Design: Clinical Trial with medical devices, 18-month, single-center, within the hospital setting. * Disease or disorder study: vascular Access maturation. * Population: Patients with CKD stage 5-5D at the research center. * Project duration: 78 weeks * Methodology: * Patients with CKD stages 5-5D that has undergone a native AV in service stations to give their informed consent and meeting the inclusion criteria will be included. * At baseline two study groups were established: * Group 1: neuromuscular electrostimulation * Group 2: isometric exercises
