  • Research summary

    This study is designed for patients who have dialysis access circuit blockage that is causing an issue with dialysis sessions. The WRAPSODY Endovascular Stent Graft is an investigational medical device that is permanently placed inside a vein to help keep it open. It is a small tube-shaped device made of a wire frame and covered with materials that help to reduce new tissue from growing inside it, which may delay the vein from narrowing in the same area again.
