Final answer:

According to the KDOQI, a nephrologist, surgeon, and radiologist can stick a new AV Fistula that meets the criteria.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the KDOQI (Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative), the following teammates can stick a new AV Fistula that has received its post-op exam and meets the criteria:

  1. Nephrologist: A kidney specialist who manages the medical care and treatment of patients with kidney disease.
  2. Surgeon: A medical doctor who performs surgical procedures, including the placement of AV Fistulas.
  3. Radiologist: A specialist who uses medical imaging techniques to diagnose and treat diseases, but their role in sticking an AV Fistula may vary depending on the specific situation.

A nurse may assist in the process by providing support and monitoring the patient's condition, but they do not typically perform the procedure themselves.
