Superior Bioengineered Vascular Support

Dramatically improving vascular surgery outcomes, starting with renal dialysis access.

SelfWrap

A New Approach to Dialysis Access

SelfWrap is a bioabsorbable, flexible, custom-fit vascular wrap designed to reduce dialysis access site failures.

Better Outcomes Are Needed

Dialysis is the primary lifeline for patients with end-stage renal disease, but dialysis access sites are prone to failure, reducing the quality and length of life for patients.
