Summary

This study is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm study with subjects acting as their own control designed to confirm the safety, performance, and usability of the V Needle, a new safety needle for use during in-clinic hemodialysis that is designed to automatically generate a partial occlusion of the internal fluid path and trigger the hemodialysis machine to alarm and shut off if a complete dislodgement of the venous needle from the arm inadvertently occurs.

DEVICE

V Needle AV Fistula Set

Hemotek Medical Inc. has developed the V Needle, a new AV fistula set for hemodialysis designed to reduce patient risk from exsanguination-related injury or death during therapy. In the event of complete dislodgement of the V Needle from the arm during use, the V Needle is designed to activate, creating high line pressure designed to generate an automated dialysis machine blood pump shut down.
