Message: | hen Nipro set out to reimagine the single use, hollow-fiber dialyzer, our goal was to evolve the new ELISIO™ into a product delivering multiple, valuable advantages. Our design and engineering teams accomplished these objectives, innovating an array of powerful, practical benefits.
Our exclusive POLYNEPHRON™ membrane is designed to function more like the human kidney to deliver better clearance performance.
Better
• More homogenous pore sizes, resulting in better clearances of uremic toxins and low molecular weight proteins like β2-microglobulin and myoglobin, with limited loss of important proteins such as albumin.
• Unique ripple structure inside the dialyzer creates more homogenous flow, enhancing small molecule clearances.
• Ultra smooth polyurethane cut surface minimizes risk of blood cell damage and clotting, resulting in better rinseback to patients.
• Improved header shape with redesigned caps to optimize blood flow dynamics.
• Header caps are permanently attached, eliminating unexpected removal or reuse.
Safer
• The only dialyzer in the U.S. made with polymers not containing BPA or DEHP, both proven to be endocrine disruptors.
Greener
• Lighter than existing dialyzers to reduce shipping and disposal costs, plus it requires fewer raw materials to produce. |
