NCT06355466

Brief Summary

In this prospective cross-sectional study, patients with ESRD unfit for AVF/AVG were scheduled for a right or left trans-jugular tunneled catheter placement. All patients were asked about their catheters' function one year after its implantation and the presumed affecting factors on catheters' patency were evaluated.

Study Population

All patients who need continuous hemodialysis and are not eligible to AVF/AVG implantation were scheduled for trans-jugular, tunneled-catheter implantation and after one session of successful hemodialysis were followed one year later for their catheters' function.

You may qualify if:

  • ESRD on chronic hemodialysis Not eligible for AVF/AVG

You may not qualify if:

  • Non-consent of the patient Death Failure to follow up Opportunity for AVF/AVG implantation during the study Failure to implant trans-jugular catheter
