Summary

Randomized two-arm study examining 90 day primary patency of two FDA-approved tunneled dialysis catheters.

Conditions

  • Renal Failure Chronic Requiring Hemodialysis
  • Chronic Renal Insufficiency

Interventions

DEVICE

VectorFlow TDC

TDC insertion with VectorFlow will be in accordance with its FDA-approved indication under moderate sedation or general anesthesia with local anesthesia using 1% lidocaine in per institutional protocol. Following TDC insertion, the catheter may be used immediately. The goal of HD is typically to achieve a target effective blood flow of 300mL/min within the first 3 hemodialysis sessions. The dialysis records from each of the first three HD sessions will be reviewed by the study coordinator for (A) Blood flow rate (QB), (B) Arterial and venous lumen pressures, (C) Kt/V, and (D) Urea reduction ratio (URR). Additionally, need and use of thrombolytic infusion (ie t-PA) (other than single dose injection) to restore or improve patency and/or need for catheter exchange.
