About this study

Official title: Neuromuscular Electrostimulation Effect on the Maturation of Native Vascular Access (VA) Patients With Kidney Disease 5- Chronic Stages 5d Estimated by Doppler Ultrasound

  • Objective: To analyze the effect of neuromuscular electrostimulation in the maturation of radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (RC-AVF) patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5-5D
  • Design: Clinical Trial with medical devices, 18-month, single-center, within the hospital setting.
  • Disease or disorder study: vascular Access maturation.
  • Population: Patients with CKD stage 5-5D at the research center.
  • Project duration: 78 weeks
  • Methodology:
  • Patients with CKD stages 5-5D that has undergone a native AV in service stations to give their informed consent and meeting the inclusion criteria will be included.
  • At baseline two study groups were established:
  • Group 1: neuromuscular electrostimulation
  • Group 2: isometric exercises

  • At baseline two study groups were established:
  • Group 1: neuromuscular electrostimulation
  • Group 2: isometric exercises
  • At baseline, patients included in the study the main demographic variables were collected, anthropometric, biochemical parameters, hemodynamic data, Eco Doppler of AV (ECO mapping) and prescribed medical treatment.
  • Likewise, they will be made an assessment of their muscle strength by skinfold and upper limb static dynamometry in which was made the native AV.
  • During the study period the following phases were established:
  • Phase 1 (4 weeks):
  • The control group will receive the usual care on an outpatient AV.
  • Patients assigned to group, will perform a program of AV electrostimulation in the affected upper extremity (according to program) after 7 days of completion of native AV.
  • At the end of this phase both groups were conducted an ECO doppler (ECO4s) AV regulated by Vascular Surgery.
  • Phase 2 (8 weeks):
  • The control group will receive the usual care on an outpatient AV.
  • Patients assigned to group, will perform a program of AV electrostimulation in the affected upper extremity (according to program)
  • At the end of this phase, both groups were conducted an ECO doppler (ECO8s) is regulated by the AV Vascular Surgery
  • During all phases of the study, patients on hemodialysis follow their analytical controls programmed by Nephrology and receive medical treatment according to standard clinical practice.
  • At the end of each phase of the study, all patients were performed an assessment of their muscle strength by centimetría, skinfold thickness and static dynamometry member in which AV has been made.
  • Calendar: A provisional timetable is presented
  • Presentation of the CEIC study: September 2014

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Neuromuscular electrostimulationDevice

    The device CompexTheta 400i provided with various developmental programs rehabilitation exercise with different phases, types and current is used. an adaptive program (heating, toning, muscular atrophy, strength-endurance) will be established for each patient during the study period. It shall apply at the level of the muscle bellies of the flexor and extensor muscles of the forearm dela upper extremity AV created. Electrodes are positioned at the anatomical reference positions. The intensity of the current will increase until a tolerable muscle contraction and painless by the patient.

Study groups in NCT02925845
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Neuromuscular electrostimulationExperimentalPatients assigned to the group NMS, following the visit Day Hospital, in the first two hours of each HD session will perform a program of neuromuscular electrostimulation of the limb with the RC-AVF performed in the reference position of the flexors and extensors forearm at the tip intervened in each HD session on the stage previously established in the protocol (duration according to established program).
Receives: Device: Neuromuscular electrostimulation
Isometric exercisesNo interventionThey will perform isometric exercises operated limb on an outpatient basis (repeated pressure rubber balls, heavy lifting 1-2 kg).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Neuromuscular electrostimulation in people with Arteriovenous Fistula, run by Hospital de Terrassa at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Lucía Inés Martínez Carnovale, MD (+340615950992, luciaimartinez@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Radiocephalic fístula flow ( millimeters/minuts) (time frame: 8 weeks ultrasonography parameter of maturation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02925845, which also lists 3 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Oct 2016.
