Study Summary

Treating central venous dialysis catheter malfunction due to fibrin sheath formation with rt-PA(TPA)infusion will give equal patency rates in a more cost effective manner when compared to catheter exchange. Subjects are randomized to TPA infusion or catheter exchange and then followed for catheter function at the post treatment dialysis session, 30-day dialysis session and 60-day dialysis session. Costs and treatment results will be compared.
