Withdrawn
Conditions
CKD
ESRD
Interventions
Device: Long term hemodialysis catheter
Registration Number
NCT04782297
Lead Sponsor
Medical Components, Inc dba MedComp
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this observational PMCF study is to collect clinical data on the safety and efficacy of Medcomp Long Term Hemodialysis (LTHD) Catheter Kits in compliance with MDR 2017/745.

Detailed Description

The Observational Study will enroll a target of 198 subjects across two cohorts of 89 patients per cohort, with each cohort representing one catheter type. Retrospective patients previously treated with either a Hemo-Flow or Titan HD catheter will be enrolled. The primary endpoint of this study for all device families is insertion success. For the purposes of this data, a successful insertion will be defined as the successful initiation of vascular access device insertion, as determined by the investigator.

GroupInterventionDescription
Titan HD CatheterLong term hemodialysis catheterThe Titan HD Catheter is a double lumen catheter that provides 2 dedicated (arterial/venous) access lumens. Each lumen is connected through an extension line with female luer connectors. The arterial and venous catheter lumens connect to a hub to facilitate connection of extension tubes with clamps intended to prevent air/fluid communication and control fluid flow through the catheter. At the proximal end of the extension tubes are female Luer fittings to provide a needleless connection. The clamps and the sleeves are color-coded red for the arterial lumen and blue for the venous lumen. Each catheter has a cuff which is intended to be positioned underneath the skin at the skin exit to aid in securing the catheter and to provide a barrier to minimize the risk of infection. Each lumen is connected through an extension line with female Luer connectors. The transition between lumen and extension is housed within a molded hub.
Hemo-Flow CatheterLong term hemodialysis catheterThe Hemo-Flow® Catheter has two lumens (one arterial lumen, one venous lumen) comprised of a biocompatible polymeric material that contains radiopaque filler to allow radiographic imaging of the distal tips to ensure proper placement into the superior vena cava. The arterial lumen is utilized to withdraw blood from the patient and the venous lumen returns the blood to the patient after treatment
