First seen Jun 02, 2026 · Last updated Jun 15, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tested a small implant and an ultrasound system to measure blood flow, diameter, and depth in arteriovenous fistulae (connections between an artery and a vein used for dialysis). Twenty adults with kidney disease took part. The goal was to see if the device is safe and easy to use, not to treat the disease itself.
