FAR-INFRARED RADIATION IN USE OF IMPROVING PATENCY OF ARTERIOVENOUS FISTULA, DECREASING FAILURE OF ARTERIOVENOUS FISTULA MATURATION, AND PREVENTING AND/OR AMELIORATING PERIPHERAL ARTERY DISEASES

摘要

The present invention provides a novel use of far-infrared radiation for improving patency of arteriovenous fistula, decreasing failure of arteriovenous fistula maturation and preventing and/or ameliorating peripheral artery diseases in a subject in need thereof. The radiation has an electromagnetic wave of about 1.5 to 100 μm wavelength, which performs on the subject skin surface for more than 10 minutes.
