Bioflo Goup for Chronic Kidney Disease
Study Summary
Numerous catheter designs have been studied to increase efficacy and minimize complications of catheter hemodialysis. Major complications of catheters include thrombosis, central venous stenosis, infection, and dialysis inadequacy. Thrombosis must be avoided if possible because using too many catheters may exhaust all of the catheter insertion sites on the body, as well as increase the risk of infection. This prospective study compares the complications and general outcomes of patients who receive hemodialysis using the mainstream Palindrome catheter versus the newer BioFlo DuraMax catheter. This study will examine outcomes of patients who receive hemodialysis using either the Palindrome catheter or the BioFlo catheter. Patients will be observed and outcomes will be recorded for three to six months. Outcomes will be analyzed and compared to draw conclusions on which catheter produces less catheter thrombosis.
