Gore Acuseal -Vascular Graft
For hemodialysis patients, a "fistula first" approach has long been the standard. But fistulas can fail, 20 to 60 percent of the time,1-5 subjecting patients to undue hardship and central venous catheter (CVC)-related risks.
That`s one reason 2019 Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) guidelines6 emphasize the need for a more individualized approach to access modality selection.
When patients are at risk for fistula non-maturation, turn to the GORE® ACUSEAL Vascular Graft – the purpose-built choice for rapid and long-term access for the road ahead. It is ideal for patients who are already on a CVC, or those who need a new access and must achieve cannulation in under two weeks.
It allows for earlier removal or avoidance of a CVC and helps achieve hemodialysis success with minimized access-related procedures and complications - for more confidence at every step.
