Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Primary Graft Patency Rate

    Primary graft patency refers to the successful use of a vascular access for hemodialysis without any surgical or endovascular intervention.

    12 months

  • Primary-Assisted Graft Patency Rate

    Primary-assisted graft patency is defined as a patent access with evidence of malfunction that requires an open surgical or endovascular intervention.

    12 months

  • Secondary Graft Patency Rate

    Secondary graft patency is defined as a functional access following intervention for thrombosis or after any interposition grafting for any reason including stenosis, aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm.

    12 months

  • Primary Graft Patency Rate

    Primary graft patency refers to the successful use of a vascular access for hemodialysis without any surgical or endovascular intervention.

    24 months after graft placement

  • Primary-Assisted Graft Patency Rate

    Primary-assisted graft patency is defined as a patent access with evidence of malfunction that requires an open surgical or endovascular intervention.

    24 months after graft placement

  • Secondary Graft Patency Rate

    Secondary graft patency is defined as a functional access following intervention for thrombosis or after any interposition grafting for any reason including stenosis, aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm.

    24 months after graft placement

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Number of Participants With Complications or Morbidity Attributable to the Study

    at least 1 year but up to two years

  • Cost Estimation and Analysis

    During the study period based on an average participant follow-up of 2 years after graft placement

  • Quality of Life (QoL) Comparison

    Participants would be followed for a period of 2 years after graft placement

  • Number of Postoperative Re-interventions

    at least 1 year but up to two years

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Aged ≥18 years of all ethnicities
  • End-stage Renal Disease stage 4 (GFR 15-29 ml/min 1.73m2) or stage 5 (GFR \<15ml/min 1.73m2) per National Kidney Foundation guidelines

  • Known hypercoagulability syndrome or a bleeding disorder
  • On a previous anticoagulant treatment
  • Intraoperative decision in favor of fistula instead of graft
  • Pregnant or breast-feeding women
  • A documented history of heparin induced thrombocytopenia or allergy
  • Active infections
  • Evidence or suspicion of central vein stenosis

Limitations and Caveats

The trial was stopped early for futility based on a pre-planned interim analysis and a Bayesian probability forecast incorporating all available information from a recent meta-analysis.
