This procedure creates a temporary connection between two veins using a thin tube, giving repeated access to the bloodstream for treatments such as dialysis or other procedures that require drawing or returning blood. It is an older, less commonly used technique compared with modern catheters or surgically created vein connections. The tube allows a vein to be accessed reliably over a short period.
