Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of Participants With Sufficient Patency for Clinical Access

    Arteriovenous fistula is patent as determined by auscultation or ultrasound and eligible for maturation assistance to achieve clinical access flow rate.

    6 weeks

  • Number of Patients Achieving Dialysis Access

    Arteriovenous fistula is mature and patient has started dialysis using the fistula

    6 weeks

  • Number of Patients on Dialysis Using the Arteriovenous Fistula or Has Adequate Access Flow Rate to Allow Dialysis

    Arteriovenous fistula is mature or has achieved a minimum clinically acceptable access flow rate as determined by doppler ultrasound assessment to support dialysis

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Patients Requiring Additional Interventions to Achieve Maturation and Dialysis Access

    12 weeks

Study Arms (1)

Treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

Interventional use of experimental Ellipsys catheter system for percutaneous creation of an arteriovenous fistula

Device: Percutaneous creation of an arteriovenous fistula

Interventions

Use of catheter system for percutaneous creation of an arteriovenous fistula
