VenoStent has developed a bioresorbable, 3D-printable, shape memory polymer for a host of biomedical applications, the first of which is addressing access failures in dialysis patients.

Perivascular wrapping is an extremely promising field, but most modalities have failed due to inferior, legacy technology. Bioresorbable SMPs have the potential to address the problems that previous materials, like the shape memory alloy, nitinol, faced, such as kinking issues. Moreover, this technology can be any time a vein-artery connection is made, such as coronary and peripheral artery bypass grafting.

Between the two founders, we've been working on this for about ten years
