A Data Mining Approach to Fistula Surgery Failure Analysis in Hemodialysis Patients

Patients with End-stage renal disease (ESRD) require hemodialysis (HD). An important aspect of HD treatment isvascular access, which that arterio-venous fistula (AVF) is the most desirable form of it. In this study we analyze the attributes of early Failure AVFs. The main idea is using descriptive techniques of data mining -such as Clustering- to discover important factors of them.
