About this study

Official title: The Natural History of Upper Arm Vessels Following Forearm Loop Arteriovenous

This study will determine whether upper arm vessels increase in size following forearm loop arteriovenous graft placement and the timing of these changes.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to determine whether upper arm vessels increase in size following forearm loop arteriovenous graft placement, and if they do, characterize the timing of these changes.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Forearm Arteriovenous Loop GraftParticipants with planned forearm loop arteriovenous graft placement for hemodialysis or forearm loop arteriovenous graft placed within the previous 7 days will have the upper arm vessels assessed following forearm loop arteriovenous graft placement for size changes and timing of changes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Upper arm vein diameter

    50% increase in upper arm vein diameter

    Measured: Six months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Kidney Disease, run by University of Nebraska at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Upper arm vein diameter (time frame: Six months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Sep 2023.
