Arteriovenous shunt in the management of severe asthma. 1984

H Truedson, and L Rosenhall, and N L Stjernberg

Arteriovenous shunt is described as a possible method to achieve vascular access in selected chronically ill patients with poor peripheral veins and, in the case of acute exacerbation, a prompt demand for access to the venous blood flow. Three patients with severe bronchial asthma are described, in whom arteriovenous shunts have been of great value.
