Kaaren, a HeRO Graft Recipient
Hear Kaaren explain the benefits of receiving a HeRO Graft and how being catheter-free has changed her life.

Is the HeRO Graft Right For Me?

“The HeRO Graft was kind of a relief to have available as an option, because I didn’t have many options left.” – Kaaren

You might be a good candidate for the HeRO Graft if you have damaged or blocked central veins and you are:

  • catheter-dependent for dialysis
  • failing a fistula or graft
  • unable to achieve your doctor’s prescribed blood flow rates
  • unable to reach target Kt/V clearances during dialysis (KDOQI target clearances, Kt/V=1.4)

Next Steps

Ask your dialysis provider if the HeRO Graft might be an option for you. Find experienced surgeons who implant the HeRO Graft here or by calling Merit Medical customer service at 800-356-3748.
