Avenu Medical

Avenu Medical, Inc. was founded in 2010 to pursue unmet clinical needs in the ESRD and vascular access market. The company has developed the Ellipsys® Vascular Access System which is an innovative, ultrasound-guided, single catheter endoAVF® system used to percutaneously create an arteriovenous (AV) fistula for hemodialysis access. Under ultrasound guidance, the Ellipsys System creates a connection of the vein to the artery using thermal energy to weld the walls of the vessels, creating a fused and permanent in-vivo anastomosis without leaving behind any foreign material or implant, including sutures.
