Hemocontrol™

Reduction in number of intra-dialysis hypotensive episodes by using Hemocontrol™ (Kidney Int. 2002)

Hemocontrol™is a biofeedback system for the physiological management of the hydro-electrolytic balance. Water elimination during dialysis can provoke sudden variations in blood volume related to a lack of control over the refilling process.

The Hemocontrol™ system, through real-time adaptation of ultrafiltration rate and conductivity (thus modulating refilling and water removal), aims at achieving three objectives simultaneously:

• The preset reduction in blood volume - to maintain the cardio vascular stability 
• The prescribed total weight loss - to restore the dry weight
• The prescribed ionic balance (Na+) - to prevent the risk of sodium overload

The Hemocontrol™ system represents a breakthrough in the physiological management of patient wellbeing and dry weight optimization.

 

The Hemocontrol™ system allows anti-HTA drug reduction due to a progressive dry body weight and dialysate conductivity reduction without increasing the intra-dialysis symptoms (J Am Soc Nephrol 2006)
