New Drug-Coated balloon could reduce painful hospital trips for dialysis patients
NCT ID NCT02408822
Summary
This study is testing if a special balloon coated with a drug (paclitaxel) works better than a standard balloon to repair narrowed blood vessels used for dialysis. The goal is to keep these access sites open longer so patients need fewer repeat procedures and hospital visits. About 52 patients with a narrowed dialysis fistula or graft are participating.
