Hero Graft

The HeRO® Graft is a hemodialysis access graft for patients who are failing fistulas or grafts or are catheter-dependent due to the blockage of veins leading to the heart.
HeRO Graft (Hemodialysis Reliable Outflow) is the ONLY fully subcutaneous AV access solution clinically proven to maintain long-term access for hemodialysis patients with central venous stenosis. HeRO Graft is classified by the FDA as a graft, but differs from a conventional AV graft since it has no venous anastomosis. It consists of two primary components:
A Proprietary ePTFE Arterial Graft Component
A Proprietary ePTFE Venous Outflow Component

ePTFE Graft with Connector

  • Beading (3-4cm) for kink resistance
  • Orientation line on graft to guide placement during tunneling
  • Titanium connector

Silicone-Coated Nitinol Component

  • No venous anastomosis
  • Reinforced 48 braid nitinol: kink & crush resistant
  • Removable and replaceable Radiopaque
  • band (at distal tip) integrated within the silicone
