The choice of the optimal AVF for each patient is conditioned mainly by the anatomical and hemodynamic characteristics of the artery and the vein chosen to perform the anastomosis. These characteristics can be modified by performing physical exercise Some vascular access guidelines suggest the performance of isometric exercises in the pre and postoperative period of the AVF confection. However, there is very little data in literature on the possible efficacy of preoperative exercise, although small published observational studies point to an improvement in the venous and arterial caliber. Regarding the postoperative exercises, they do seem to improve maturation, however the degree of evidence in literature is low and there is no consensus on the exercise protocol to follow.
