“We foresee a large backlog of patients who require vascular access creation when COVID-19 starts to be curtailed. Once elective procedures are permitted, it is important that these patients be triaged to minimize the risks of potential catheter-related complications. We propose the ABCDE score, a simple five-component scoring system that will allow clinicians to triage patients who require vascular access creation. Each component of the scoring system is represented by a corresponding character in ABCDE”.
