Buttonhole Versus Step Ladder Cannulation in High Dose Hemodialysis

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the pilot study is to determine: 1) Will patients agree to be randomized to two different methods of putting needles in their arteriovenous fistula and, 2) if we can adequately coordinate all of the sites to get useful multicentre trial data

Clinical Trial Description

To determine the feasibility of 1) randomizing patients to step-ladder versus buttonhole cannulation techniques, and 2) coordinating the multiple Canadian sites that are required for the definitive study.

Secondary Objectives: To determine 1) if buttonhole cannulation, compared to step-ladder cannulation is associated with reduced training time for high dose home hemodialysis patients, 2) if buttonhole cannulation, compared to step-ladder cannulation is associated with reduced overall cost, 3) if buttonhole cannulation, compared to step-ladder cannulation is associated with reduced complications (infection - local and systemic, radiologic/surgical interventions, re-trains for needle insertion difficulties, hematoma formation, aneurysm formation, missed insertions), and 4) if buttonhole cannulation, compared to step-ladder cannulation is associated with reduced patient discomfort with needling for intensive home hemodialysis patients ;
