5008S – Hemodialysis Machine

The Practical Approach to ONLINE HDF

Experience the difference

Offering ONLINE HDF as Standard to All Patients

ONLINE Haemodiafiltration ( ONLINE HDF ) is increasingly recognised as the most advanced haemodialysis treatment that improves patient outcomes through a number of clinical advantages. Benefits of ONLINE HDF include reduced risk of endothelial dysfunction, thereby Protecting the Endothelium.

Recent studies indicate that ONLINE HDF therapy significantly reduces the risk of mortality for ESRD patients compared to standard haemodialysis therapy.

ONLINE HDF, particularly with large quantity of sterile replacement fluid, not only offers the most physiological and efficient elimination of a broad range of small, medium-sized and large uremic toxins, but also improves patient outcome and quality-of-life through:

Better elimination of middle molecules
Greater haemodynamic stability
Less side-effects and intradialytic symptoms
Reduced Calcium-Phosphate-Product
Better anaemia control and reduced EPO requirements
Reduced inflammation and oxidative stress

Highest Safety Standard

Although convective therapies are prescribed to efficiently remove larger solutes, continuous monitoring of the clearance of small solutes is essential towards evaluating overall treatment efficiency. The Online Clearance Monitor (OCM®) of the 5008S assures dialysis dose targets are attained.

Additionally, the therapy option Blood Temperature Monitor (BTM) further improves the quality of treatment through regulation of core body temperature, thereby improving haemodynamic stability.

The 5008S incorporates innovative safety systems and advanced software to help minimise undesirable incidences for highest patient safety.

Best Handling for all Users

Haemodialysis involves a large number of intensive manual operations centred around the haemodialysis machine.

The 5008S has been specifically designed to simplify and safeguard all work-intensive and manual operation steps in daily routine through fully automated procedures.

This allows the nursing personnel much-needed time to care for patients who, increasingly, suffer from multiple comorbidities.

Advanced features include:

Centralised operation and information via a large touch screen interface.
Intuitive user guidance system.
Ergonomic handling, e.g. one handed connection of bibag®.
Seamless work-flow including multiple machine-assisted procedures.
Easy, rapid and safe data management via PatientCard or network (Therapy Data Management System – TDMS).

Optimal Use of Resources

The intelligent systems also extends to therapy efficiency with the AutoSub feature offering automatic HDF substitution rate individualised to the effective blood flow rate, haematocrit result, total protein concentration and ultrafiltration rate.

AutoFlow offers automatic adjustment and optimal adaptation of dialysate flow to the effective blood flow. The minimised consumption during stand-by conditions ensuring economical use of dialysate and energy.
