Abstract
Dialysis access operations are increasingly being performed on an outpatient basis, with stable perioperative outcomes. Inpatient procedures are associated with worse outcomes, likely because they are reserved for patients with acute illnesses, serious comorbidities, and poor functional status. Overall, for appropriately selected patients, the movement toward performing more elective dialysis access operations on an outpatient basis is associated with acceptable outcomes.
