Confirmatory Study to Assess the V Needle in End-Stage Renal Disease Patients During In-Clinic Hemodialysis

Hemotek Medical Inc. has developed the V Needle, a new AV fistula set for hemodialysis designed to reduce patient risk from exsanguination-related injury or death during therapy. In the event of complete dislodgement of the V Needle from the arm during use, the V Needle is designed to activate, creating high line pressure designed to generate an automated dialysis machine blood pump shut down.
