Trial summary

Many guidelines at home and abroad advocate that arteriovenous fistula should be the first choice of permanent vascular access, but it is easy to form thrombus in a short time after arteriovenous fistula molding, resulting in internal fistula stenosis or occlusion. Read more about this study

About this study

Many guidelines at home and abroad advocate that arteriovenous fistula should be the first choice of permanent vascular access, but it is easy to form thrombus in a short time after arteriovenous fistula molding, resulting in internal fistula stenosis or occlusion. In this study, the investigators plan to screen the patients with arteriovenous fistula in the blood purification center of our hospital. Through the study design of random grouping and open label, the investigators will discuss the use of low molecular weight heparin or warfarin to prevent thrombosis in a short period of time after arteriovenous fistula operation. According to the research results, the investigators will understand efficacy and safety of short-term postoperative anticoagulant therapy to prevente thrombosis in arterovenous fistula.

What participants receive

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

  • Low molecular weight heparinDrug

    Also called warfarin sodium tablets

    patients began to use low molecular weight heparin or warfarin sodium tablets.

  • non anticoagulant therapy groupOther

    no anticoagulant was used after operation.

Study groups in NCT04164693
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
anticoagulant groupExperimentalPatients in the anticoagulant group received low-dose subcutaneous injection of low molecular weight heparin for prevention of AVF thrombosis, starting 12-24 hours after surgery. For patients weighing less than 80kg, enoxaparin sodium 4000IU was administered once daily, while for those weighing over 80kg, enoxaparin sodium 4000IU was administered every 12 hours. After discharge, these patients were switched to oral low-dose warfarin for anticoagulation, with a daily dose of 1.25mg (half tablet) on dialysis days, and 2.5mg/day on non-dialysis days. Patients with significantly excessive body weight may be considered for a daily dose of 2.5mg, with a total treatment duration of 4 weeks.
Receives: Drug: Low molecular weight heparin
control groupOtherPatients in the control group did not receive anticoagulants postoperatively, but both groups routinely received antiplatelet therapy.
Receives: Other: non anticoagulant therapy group

Model description
The enrolled patients will be randomly assigned to either the anticoagulant group or the control group. Patients in the anticoagulant group will receive a low-dose subcutaneous injection of low molecular weight heparin for the prevention of AVF thrombosis, starting 12-24 hours after the surgery. For patients weighing less than 80kg, enoxaparin sodium 4000IU will be administered once daily, while for those weighing over 80kg, enoxaparin sodium 4000IU will be administered every 12 hours. After discharge, these patients will be switched to oral low-dose warfarin for anticoagulation, with a daily dose of 1.25mg (half tablet) on dialysis days and 2.5mg/day on non-dialysis days. Patients with significantly excessive body weight may be considered for a daily dose of 2.5mg, with a total treatment duration of 4 weeks. Patients in the control group will not receive anticoagulants postoperatively, but both groups will routinely receive antiplatelet therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Low molecular weight heparin and non anticoagulant therapy group in people with Thrombosis, run by First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 6 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 24 Jun 2024. 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 China. 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?

Blood flow of arteriovenous fistula (time frame: up to 12 months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 Jun 2024.
