  • Is indicated to receive dialysis treatment at a location where dialysis treatment data will be accessible by the study team.
  • Is able to comprehend and have signed the Informed Consent Form (ICF) to participate in the study.

Who cannot join

  • Has known or suspected presence of other device-related infection, bacteremia, or septicemia or has been treated with antibiotics for documented or suspected infection within prior 45 days.
  • Is receiving prophylactic anti-coagulation or anti-platelet pharmacotherapy for the purpose of central venous catheter (CVC) patency (anti-coagulation or anti-platelet pharmacotherapy for therapeutic indications do not exclude the patient from the study).
  • Has severe chronic obstructive lung disease.
  • Had past radiation therapy at the prospective insertion site.
  • Had previous episodes of venous thrombosis or vascular surgical procedures at the prospective insertion site.
  • Has local tissue factors that will prevent proper device stabilization and/or access.

About this study

Official title: A Pragmatic Multicenter Pilot Trial Evaluating the Cost-Effectiveness of BioFlo DuraMax Hemodialysis Catheter vs Standard of Care Catheter

This is a prospective, multi-center health economic study in Canada. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the study or control dialysis catheter. The primary objective is to evaluate resource utilization in Ontario related to hemodialysis catheter placement including tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) usage, catheter exchange rates, catheter patency, and missed dialysis days.

Being tested
BioFlo DuraMax Chronic Hemodialysis Catheter, Standard of Care Catheter

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BioFlo DuraMax Chronic Hemodialysis Catheter in people with Central Venous Catheter and Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection (CRBSI) Nos, run by William Osler Health System at 3 sites in Canada.

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 11 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Canada. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Resource utilization related to hemodialysis catheter placement - tPA (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 5 Nov 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
