Study information

Study designNon-randomised, non-controlled, parallel group, clinical trial
Primary study designInterventional
Secondary study designSingle-centre
Study setting(s)Hospital
Study typeDiagnostic
Scientific title
Study objectivesResearch 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) studiedChronic renal insufficiency
InterventionExcision biopsy of a small piece of the radial artery during operation.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure1. Similarity between ulrasonographically measured and histologically measured radial artery wall thickness
2. Patency rates
Secondary outcome measuresNo secondary outcome measures
