About this trial

This study aims to evaluate the effect of 12 week low-intensity pulse ultrasound (LIPUS) intervention on the maturation of newly constructed autologous arteriovenous fistulas in uremic patients. This study is a prospective, blinded, randomized controlled trial. This trial is divided into two stages. The first stage is a concept validation trial, which is a single center, prospective, blinded, randomized controlled clinical study. Subjects who meet the screening criteria are randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group in a 1:1 ratio. All subjects underwent safety and efficacy evaluations at the 2nd, 4th, 8th, 12th, and 4th week after treatment. After completing a 4-week follow-up of the 20th study subject, an analysis was conducted with the preset goal of achieving a higher maturation rate of arteriovenous fistula in the intervention group compared to the control group at the follow-up point, and the safety of the study was evaluated. The second stage is a key trial, which is a multicenter, prospective, blinded, randomized controlled clinical study. The inclusion criteria, primary and secondary endpoints, and safety endpoints of the study subjects remain unchanged, and the safety and efficacy of the overall population are evaluated.
