Trial summary

Healthy kidneys clean your blood by removing excess fluid, minerals, and wastes. When your kidneys fail, harmful wastes build up in your body and your body may retain excess fluid. When this happens, you need treatment to replace the work of your failed kidneys. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of Local Anaesthetic Percutaneous Insertion Versus General Anaesthetic Open Surgical Placement of Continuous Peritoneal Dialysis Catheters in a University Teaching Hospital

Healthy kidneys clean your blood by removing excess fluid, minerals, and wastes. When your kidneys fail, harmful wastes build up in your body and your body may retain excess fluid. When this happens, you need treatment to replace the work of your failed kidneys. This may be with a dialysis machine using haemodialysis or with fluid in the abdomen or peritoneal dialysis.

In peritoneal dialysis, a tube called a catheter is put in the abdomen wall and used to fill your abdomen with a cleansing liquid called dialysis solution. The walls of your abdominal cavity are lined with a membrane called the peritoneum, which allows waste products and extra fluid to pass from your blood into the dialysis solution. These wastes and fluid are removed from the body when the dialysis fluid is drained and replaced with a fresh solution.

The tubes or catheters used to exchange the fluid are currently positioned using a general anaesthetic (with the patient awake) and an operation with a cut under the belly button. Newer techniques using local anaesthetic (with the patient awake and the area numbed) and requiring only a small cut in the skin have been used. No one has ever directly compared the two techniques.

The investigators aim is to perform a direct comparison between the two techniques to look at the complications and time required for surgery and length of hospital stay required. The investigators will also look at the patients satisfaction and pain scores with each technique to help gather evidence as to which is likely to be the best technique to use from now on.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Percutaneous Insertion catheterProcedure or surgery

    Insertion of CAPD catheter using percutaneous seldinger technique under local anaesthetic +/- sedation as required

  • Open insertion CatheterProcedure or surgery

    Present technique of open insertion under general anaesthetic. Incision to lower abdomen and direct visualisation of catheter tip placement into pelvis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Catheter survival

    Time to catheter removal for any reason.recorded as percentage inn situ at 6, 12,18,etc months post procedure.

    Measured: Ongoing (recorded at 6 month intervals)

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Peri operative complications (bleeding, bowel injury)

    All complications occuring at time of procedure and in 24 hours immediately post procedure.

    Measured: 24 hrs post procedure

  2. Mechanical Complication (drainage failure, displacement, fluid leak)

    All mechanical complications recorded during follow up period. Note of timing of complications will be made in results. Early = within 30 days, late = beyond 30 days

    Measured: ongoing (reported at 30 days and monthly thereafter)

  3. Infective complications (exit site, tunnel, peritonitis)

    All infective complications recorded during follow up period. Note of timing of complications will be made in results. Early = within 30 days, late = beyond 30 days

    Measured: ongoing (reported at 30 days and monthly thereafter)

  4. Operative time

    Time to complete procedure from start to finish.

    Measured: Average of 2 hours post procedure

  5. Technical Success of placement

    Assessment of whether a working and useable catheter is in situ at the end of the procedure.

    Measured: Average of 2 hours post procedure

  6. Length of admission

    Length of admission post procedure according to strict discharge criteria.

    Measured: Average of 48 hours post procedure

  7. Patient reported pain post procedure

    Analgesia and daily pain scoring diaries will be issued to patients post procedure. These will record patient reported pain at 24 hour intervals to 5 days as well as analgesia taken during the same period.

    Measured: 24 hour intervals to 5 days post procedure

  8. Quality of life assessment by questionnaire

    Measured: Within 24 hours prior to procedure, and again at both 5 days and 3 months post procedure

  9. Estimated cost of care episode

    Overall estimated cost of admission, procedure, ongoing care of catheter and management of complications arising from catheter or procedure will be calculated.

    Measured: 3 months post procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Percutaneous Insertion catheter and Open insertion Catheter in people with Renal Failure, run by Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jul 2019. 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 Kingdom. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Catheter survival (time frame: Ongoing (recorded at 6 month intervals)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01023191, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 22 Jul 2019.
