SAVE-FistulaS: the SelfWrap-Assisted ArterioVEnous Fistulas Study
VenoStent
Summary
This is a prospective, randomized, multi-center clinical trial for chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients referred for creation of a new arteriovenous fistula (AVF) in order to assess the safety and effectiveness of SelfWrap, a bioabsorbable perivascular wrap.
Description
This is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, double-arm, single-blind, evaluator-blinded clinical trial for CKD patients referred for creation of a new arteriovenous fistula (AVF). This study will involve approximately 600 participants from up to 30 investigational sites, randomized 1:1 to treatment with the SelfWrap or the untreated AVF control (i.e. standard of care, SOC). Participants will be followed for a duration of 36 months.
