The purpose of this study is to evaluate the complication of the puncture related complication in AVG (arteriovenous graft) such as pseudoaneurysm and hematoma, and the dialysis adequacy using plastic cannula versus metal needle in hemodialysis patients
1. Ultrasonography is performed to determine the maturity of vascular access 4 weeks after AVG creation. 2. The first puncture is performed with plastic cannula or metal needle when it is judged that the blood vessel has matured. 3. Four skilled nurses perform vascular access puncture with plastic or metal needle 4. Ultrasound are used to evaluate and record the complications related to the puncture in plastic or metal needle group every month. 5. Complications and dialysis adequacy between the two groups will be evaluated after 6 months
