Summary

Patients with stage IV and V chronic kidney disease and end stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis at University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) Dialysis Clinics will be recruited from the UAB Vascular Access Clinic, which has been the site for recruitment of patients requiring new vascular access for the last 10 years.

Conditions

  • Improve Endothelial Function and Decrease Vascular Stenosis

Interventions

DRUG

Sildenafil

Sildenafil, a phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor that enhances the effects of nitric oxide (NO), has been shown in experimental and clinical studies in cardiovascular disease to improve endothelial function and decrease vascular stenosis.

OTHER

Placebo

Placebo will be over encapsulated to identical to drug comparison
