Evaluation of the Radial Artery Deviation And Reimplantation Technique for Primary Hemodialysis Access Creation

Evaluation of the Radial Artery Deviation And Reimplantation Technique for Primary Hemodialysis Access Creation: a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Dec 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The Radial Artery Deviation And Reimplantation (RADAR) technique is a new approach for the construction of hemodialysis arteriovenous fistula. In this technique, the radial artery pedicle is deviated towards the minimally dissected cephalic vein at the wrist. The aim of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of this technique with the traditional end-cephalic to side-radial arteriovenous fistula, currently used as a first line vascular access in hemodialysis patients. The hypothesis is that the minimal dissection concept used in the RADAR inhibits venous juxta-anastomotic neointimal hyperplasia and stenosis, and lead to higher rates of maturation and patency.

    • Positive Allen test (patent palmar arches)
  • Preoperative arterial and venous duplex ultrasound examination of both limbs showing on the same limb :
    • A patent cephalic vein, ≥2mm in diameter at the distal 1/3 of the forearm, free from stenosis, ≥15cm in length
    • A patent on dominant radial artery, ≥2mm in diameter at the distal 1/3 of the forearm, free from stenosis and major calcifications
    • A patent ulnar artery, free from stenosis and major calcifications
    • A positive Allen's test with assessment of the retrograde flow (patent palmar aches)
  • Digital pressure \>50mmHg when occlusive compression is made on the radial artery and digital/brachial ratio \>0.5
