NCT07179536
Transradial access has become the standard for coronary procedures due to fewer vascular complications and shorter bed rest, yet transfemoral access remains essential for complex peripheral interventions requiring larger sheaths and stronger support. Vascular closure devices (VCDs), particularly suture-mediated devices such as ProGlide, have improved femoral access by reducing hemostasis time, ambulation delay, and patient discomfort. Although early ambulation after ProGlide closure has been reported, current practice varies widely, and the relationship between ambulation timing and vascular complications remains unclear. This trial aims to evaluate the effect of different ambulation times after ProGlide closure in transfemoral peripheral angiography or intervention, with the goal of identifying the optimal time to ambulation that balances safety and efficiency.

NCT05425056
The primary study objective is to evaluate the benefit of the Sirolimus eluting Collagen implant (SeCI; Sirogen), a single dose prophylactic treatment delivered intraoperatively at the time of surgical creation of an arteriovenous fistula for hemodialysis vascular access.
NCT05093699
Researchers are evaluating the clinical efficiency of utilization of a dual-plane simultaneous view ultrasound probe (Butterfly iQ+; Butterfly Network, Inc.) during arterial catheter placement in the operating room
NCT06944327
The present study aims to analyze different care routes of the peripheral access central venous catheter to assess which alternative allows a moderate reduction in the level of complications associated with prolonged care frequency, due to the reduction of device manipulation. A high level of patient satisfaction is detected due to the controlled follow-up of the device care, as well as a decrease in the need for transfer to a center for follow-up. Objective: Identify the type of care frequency for PIVCs most beneficial for the reduction of complications associated with extraluminal device care (thrombosis, phlebitis, accidental removal, obstruction).
NCT06938750
Background: Different co-creation methods were used to design and prototype a new fixative device for multiple intravenous therapies with the ability to control and identify the pharmacological therapy administered to a patient. Objectives: To validate a newly created device for the reduction of complications related to the use of intravenous therapy Methods: A multidisciplinary team composed of eight professionals specializing in the field of critical care and an engineering professional in industrial design was responsible for collecting, evaluating, and materializing the ideas and needs arising from clinical practice in a device that met the standards of the same.
NCT06365489
Arterio-Venous Fistula (AVF) is the most recommended vascular access for hemodialysis. Steal syndrome is a potential complication of AVF implantation and occurs secondary to diversion of the arterial flow of a limb to the venous system resulting in limb ischemia. Measuring wrist pressure compared to arm pressure before and after fistula implantation can be a suitable tool in predicting the possibility of Steal syndrome. In this study, the ratio of wrist to arm pressure and its relationship with Steal syndrome symptoms before and after fistula implantation are investigated.
NCT04077762
This is a phase IV, prospective, open label, randomized-controlled study that will compare radial access with state-of-the-art femoral access in patients without ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction undergoing cardiac catheterization. Subjects will be randomized 1:1 into 2 treatment groups: radial access and state-of-the-art femoral access. Randomization will be performed in blocks of 50 per site. Similarly, a second sub-randomization will be performed in the femoral access group into use of 18 vs 21 gauge needles, also in a 1:1 fashion.
NCT06566495
The purpose of this study was to compare microbial contamination on the surface of reusable stasis after indefinite use, 2 weeks and 4 weeks. We investigated how the site - the operating theater and the emergency department, as well as the time of use - affects the number of organisms.
NCT06550479
This study aims to determine which type of distal arteriovenous fistula (SBAVF, RCAVF, and RCAVF with venous branch patch) is most clinically favorable. The recommendations and scientific evidence do not suggest which option should be chosen initially. The investigators expect that results will show which type of the anastomosis should be preferred.
NCT03969225
A functioning vascular access provides a lifeline for patients requiring haemodialysis but vascular access dysfunction remains one of the leading causes of excessive morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs in this group. Despite increasing numbers of vascular access trials, successful interventions to improve vascular access function have been sparse and compromised by highly variable, often selectively reported outcome measures of limited relevance to patients and health professionals. Through engagement of all relevant stakeholders including patients and caregivers, vascular access function, defined by the need for interventions to enable and maintain the use of a vascular access for haemodialysis, has been identified as one of the most critically important outcome measures for trials in haemodialysis. This prospective, multi-centre, multinational validation study aims to assess the accuracy and feasibility of measuring vascular access function part of routine clinical practice and across different clinical settings to ensure successful global implementation of this core outcome measure in future trials in haemodialysis.

Comparison of safety and efficacy between the application of vascular closure device and conventional figure-of-eight suture in transvenous cardiac interventional surgery
NCT05410691
Cannulation of complex arteriovenous fistula (AVF) or graft (AVG) is a challenge to renal nurses. Ultrasound (US) guidance on central and peripheral venous access visualisation has been widely adopted in nephrology and shown to reduce complications of vascular interventions. With broader adoption of handheld US devices in clinical services, renal nurses could acquire this point-of-care technique to increase the successful cannulation rate while facilitating confidence build-up during training and practice. We aim to evaluate the use of handheld US on difficult AVF/AVG cannulation in a hospital-based dialysis unit.
NCT05311111
The aim of this non-inferiority trial is to determine if the distal radial access (DRA) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has an acceptable efficacy compared to the reference access through the conventional radial artery (TRA) with a lower rate of radial artery occlusion (RAO) in real life practice.
