|---|---|
| Study design | Non-randomised, non-controlled, parallel group, clinical trial |
| Secondary study design | Single-centre |
| Scientific title | |
| Study objectives | Research to investigate whether ultrasonographically and histologically measured radial artery wall thickness are comparable, and whether this wall thickness is predictive for maturation of arteriovenous fistulas in haemodialysis patients. Hypothesis: Radial artery wall thickness is predictive for arteriovenous fistula maturation and can be measured by means of ultrasonography. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Ethics approval received from the local medical ethics committee |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Chronic renal insufficiency |
| Intervention | Excision biopsy of a small piece of the radial artery during operation. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
1. Similarity between ulrasonographically measured and histologically measured radial artery wall thickness |
| Key secondary outcome measure(s) |
No secondary outcome measures |
| Completion date | 31/12/2005 |
