Hero Graft Graft insertion in patients with positive section

Reduce the catheter dependence

HeRO graft is a kind of hemodialysis pathways, suitable for fistula or or graft loss due to the heart of the vein occlusion and rely on the catheter patients.

The characteristics and advantages

Compared with other catheter, HeRO Graft with:

Fewer infections

Fewer infections: compared with catheter, the infection rate was reduced by 69%1

The remarkable dialysis adequacy

  • 1.7 Kt/V, increased by 16% to 32% compared with catheter1
  • Toxins and dialysis fluid clearance increased by 16% to 32% (Kt/V)1
  • Maintain access function of intervention is less than half1

High flow rate

Cumulative patency rate is as high as 2% in 871, 2,

Cost savings

Compared with the catheter, save an average of 23% a year3

HeRO Graft candidate/HeRO Graft is suitable for you?

If you develop any of the following, HeRO Graft may be suitable for you or your patient:

  • Catheter dependence on or near a catheter dependence
  • Central venous stenosis cause fistula or graft loss

HeRO of the GRAFT

HeRO Graft (hemodialysis reliable outflow)onlyProved by clinical, completely subcutaneous AV channel solution can maintain long-term pathway in patients receiving hemodialysisCentral venous stenosis. HeRO Graft by the FDA as Graft, but unlike traditional AV grafts, because it without venous anastomosis.It is composed of two main components:

Proprietary components ePTFE artery transplantation

HeRO component Graft artery transplantation of inner diameter (ID) for 6 mm, outside diameter (OD) is 7.4 mm, is 53 cm in length, including the connector.It is composed of PTFE with beads of blood dialysis ePTFE grafts, but near the titanium proprietary connector provides kink resistance.Titanium connector transplanted artery components connected to the venous outflow components.According to KDOQI guidelines, using standard techniques for components artery transplantation for intubation.

Proprietary ePTFE venous outflow components

HeRO transplanted vein outflow components of the inner diameter of 5 mm, outside diameter of 19 f (6.3 mm), 40 cm long.It consists of a braided Nitinol reinforced material (used in anti kink and crushing) opaque rays, silica gel and opaque distal rays tag zone.

EPTFE grafts with a connector

  • Beading (3-4 cm) used for anti kink
  • The directional lines on the graft to guide placed in the process of tunnel excavation
  • Titanium joints

Silicon coating Nitinol components

  • Without venous anastomosis
  • 48 braided Nitinol: enhance kink resistance and resistance to squeeze
  • Removable and replaceable opaque rays () at the far end integration within the silica gel
