Hospital trial tests better way to keep kidney failure catheters clear
NCT ID NCT01962116
Summary
This study tested whether a citrate solution works better than the standard heparin solution at keeping dialysis catheters from clogging or causing infections in ICU patients with sudden kidney failure. It involved 405 hospitalized adults who needed temporary dialysis. Researchers randomly assigned patients to receive one of the two solutions in their catheter to see which one kept it working properly for longer.
