Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Patency12 months

Primary end point is a composite of one or more of :

* \>50% stenosis of index lesion requiring re-intervention

* Re-intervention of index lesion due to clinical indications without 50% re-stenosis

* Fistula failure

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Technical successTime of baseline index intervention

Defined as \<30% residual stenosis using only the study balloon to which the patient was randomised

Assisted technical success of balloon angioplastyAt time of baseline index intervention

Defined as \<30% residual stenosis using adjunctive procedures in addition to study balloon

Successful use of fistula for dialysisIn the 12 months following baseline index intervention

Defined as successful use of the fistula for dialysis using 2 needles on at least one occasion

Secondary patency of the access circuitIn the 12 months following baseline index intervention
