Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Investigator plan to conduct a multicenter, open-labelled, randomized study to compare the primary patency and safety of elbow mNT-BBAVF and wrist RCAVF in hemodialysis patients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: mNT-BBAVF
  • Procedure: RCAVF

Detailed Description

Although wrist radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (RCAVF) has been recommended as first preferred fistula in many clinical practical guidelines for vascular access, there are no randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the recommended anatomic order of distal-to-proximal access construction up to now. A modified non-transposed brachiobasilic arteriovenous fistula (mNT-BBAVF) that has a long length of suitable superficial vein for cannulation and a sufficient blood flow for effective dialysis has been introduced by investigator for several years. In addition, mNT-BBAVF has good primary patency and a low risk of complication and leave opportunities for further procedures in the event of failure. Investigator plan to conduct a multicenter, open-labelled, randomized study to compare the primary patency and safety of elbow mNT-BBAVF and wrist RCAVF in hemodialysis patients.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: mNT-BBAVF

These patients will receive a modified non-transposed brachiobasilic arteriovenous fistula (mNT-BBAVF) at elbow for hemodialysis acess.

Procedure: mNT-BBAVF
Briefly, to construct an mNT-BBAVF, an incision is made on the ulnar side of the elbow. The brachial artery and basilic vein are then isolated, and a side-to-side anastomosis is performed without transposition of the basilic vein.

Active Comparator: RCAVF

These patients will receive a radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (RCAVF) at wrist for hemodialysis acess.

Procedure: RCAVF
Briefly, to construct a wrist RCAVF, an incision is made on the radial side of the wrist. The radial artery and cephalic vein are then isolated, and a end-to-side anastomosis is performed.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Primary Unassisted Patency [1 year]

    This is the time of access creation or placement until any first intervention to maintain or restore blood flow

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Immediate Vascular Access Failure [72 hours]

    This is an access that has either no appearance of or a loss of bruit or thrill within 72 hours of creation

  2. Cumulative Patency [1 year]

    This is the time of access creation or placement until access abandonment

  3. Early Dialysis Suitability Failure [3 months]

    This is an access that, despite radiological or surgical intervention, cannot be used successfully for dialysis by the third month following its creation.
