Provided is a high performance cannula having a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen extending between the proximal and distal ends, wherein the diameter of the lumen of the cannula can be varied to take into account differences in the diameter of access and target vessels during cannulation. The cannula is characterized by a narrow diameter at the point of insertion that does not adversely impact the flow rate of fluids through the cannula. The cannulas according to this invention produce a small access aperture and are characterized by flow rates that are at least as effective as those of conventional cannulas that produce larger access apertures.
