The invention from the University of Warsaw will increase the safety of dialysis patients

The prototype of the device is at the stage of intensive tests carried out in cooperation with the Medical University of Warsaw. The unattended analyzer continuously measures the toxins removed from the patient’s body in the sub-dialysis fluid. Thanks to this, the method of operation is completely non-invasive for the patient. Thanks to the invention, the doctor and staff operating the hemodialysis machines (the so-called artificial kidneys) can track the current progress of the procedure and obtain quantitative information on the effectiveness of the therapy, which allows to decide on the optimal time of treatment completion (shortening or extending the procedure), as well as checking whether the procedure itself is going well and respond appropriately.
