About this study

The goal of this trial is to investigate the prognostic value of monitoring finger blood pressures (FBPs) in predicting the success of surgically created arteriovenous fistula (AVF) for patients with end stage renal disease. The main questions it aims to answer is:

  • Can FBPs predict AVF maturation?

Participants will undergo FBP measurements at pre-op, immediately post-op, 4 weeks and 6 weeks post-AVF creation.

Being tested
Finger Blood Pressure Measurement
Medical subject headings
Kidney Failure, Chronic

What participants receive

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

  • Finger Blood Pressure MeasurementOther

    Finger Blood Pressure Measurement were taken from three digits: the thumb (F1), the middle finger (F2), and the little finger (F3) from both arms.

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between AVF maturation and changes in Finger Blood Pressure measurements at baseline and immediately post-op

    To determine whether if there are any pattern in changes observed in FBP pre and post-creation that can be used for correlation to AVF maturation.

    Measured: Within 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlation between AVF maturation and changes in Finger Blood Pressure measurements across other timepoints

    To determine whether changes in FBP across time points (pre-op, post-op, 4 weeks and 6 weeks post-op) is correlated with AVF maturation

    Measured: Until 6 weeks post-operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Finger Blood Pressure Measurement in people with End Stage Renal Disease and End-Stage Kidney Disease, run by Singapore General Hospital at 1 site in Singapore.

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 5 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 9 Jan 2025. 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 Singapore. 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?

Correlation between AVF maturation and changes in Finger Blood Pressure measurements at baseline and immediately post-op (time frame: Within 24 hours). 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 NCT06765577, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 9 Jan 2025.
