Randomized pilot study to compare metal needles versus plastic cannulae in the development of complications in hemodialysis access
BACKGROUND: Hemodialysis requires needle insertions every treatment. Needle injury (mechanical or hemodynamic) may cause complications (aneurysms/stenosis) that compromise dialysis delivery requiring interventions. Metal needles have a sharp slanted “V”-shaped cutting tip; plastic cannulae have a du...
