Abstract
PURPOSE: An arterio-venous fistula (AVF) raises mixed venous oxygen content and might thereby lessen the adverse consequences of venous admixture (physiological shunt) in patients with chronic lung disease. We hypothesized that therapeutic creation of an AVF in patients with severe COPD would thereby enhance oxygen delivery and improve exercise performance.
