Developing a pragmatic, patient–centric, precision medicine approach to dialysis vascular access. Note how the pragmatic collection of centralized data within dialysis organizations, vascular access centers, and health care provider organizations could result in the development of clinical, demographic, biologic, and process of care predictors for arteriovenous fistula maturation. This would result in a patient–centric, precision medicine approach to vascular access dysfunction.
