What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mortality
Time Frame: Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
To evaluate if the death rate of participants using the HeRO Graft is less than the death rate of patients who do not receive the HeRO Graft and continue to use a tunneled dialysis catheter for dialysis.
Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adequacy of dialysis (Kt/V)
Time Frame: Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
To evaluate if the adequacy of dialysis of participants using the HeRO Graft is better than the adequacy of dialysis of patients who do not receive the HeRO Graft and continue to use a tunneled dialysis catheter for dialysis.
Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
Infection rate
Time Frame: Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
To evaluate if the infection rate of participants using the HeRO Graft is less than the infection rate of patients who do not receive the HeRO Graft and continue to use a tunneled dialysis catheter for dialysis.
Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Hospitalization rate
Time Frame: Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
To evaluate if the hospitalization rate of participants using the HeRO Graft is less than that of patients who do not receive the HeRO Graft and continue to use a tunneled dialysis catheter for dialysis.
Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
Patency rate
Time Frame: Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
To evaluate if the patency rate of participants using the HeRO Graft is less than that of patients who do not receive the HeRO Graft and continue to use a tunneled dialysis catheter for dialysis.
Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
Intervention rate
Time Frame: Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
To evaluate if the intervention rate of participants using the HeRO Graft is less than that of patients who do not receive the HeRO Graft and continue to use a tunneled dialysis catheter for dialysis.
Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
Adverse events
Time Frame: Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
To evaluate if the number of adverse events of participants using the HeRO Graft is less than that of patients who do not receive the HeRO Graft and continue to use a tunneled dialysis catheter for dialysis.
Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
Blood pressure
Time Frame: Every six months post-implant until death or no longer using HeRO Graft for dialysis, up to five years
