An intragraft dialysis catheter apparatus (10) for installation in a pre-existing A-V dialysis shunt for prolonging the useful life of the A-V dialysis shunt for providing blood flow to the inlet and outlet ports of a conventional dialysis machine to cleanse a patient's blood supply in a well recognized manner. The apparatus includes a pair of generally thin walled reservoir members (30), (30') each having a generally stiff backing plate member (40), (40') covering at least the bottom portion of the respective reservoir members (30), (30') and wherein each reservoir member (30), (30') is in open fluid communication with one of a pair of elongated hollow catheter members (20), (20').
