The effects of local infiltration anesthesia, brachial plexus blockade, isoflurane, or halothane anesthesia on blood flow through the artery and a newly created forearm arteriovenous fistula (AVF) were compared in 36 patients with endstage renal failure. Brachial was measured at two different times, before during but surgery, using pulsed Doppler flowmeter. AVF flows calculated from brachial, radial, ulnar end 2 h after 3 10 days procedure. Mean arterial pressure lower receiving isoflurane...
