Vascular Access Graft
InnAVasc’s novel graft modification technology is designed to create one contiguous flow lumen without transition points. The key innovative features of this technology include:
- Self-sealing needle stick zone which allows for durable, injury-proof cannulation and immediate use for hemodialysis post implantation
- Dialysis catheter reduction and elimination
- Error proof cannulation which allows for predictable, reliable access every time
- Ease of use regardless of cannulation experience, including patients, family members, and new dialysis technicians
The InnAVasc AV Graft is for investigational use only. The device has not been cleared to market by the U.S. FDA.
