INTRODUCTION TO HEMODIALYSIS MACHINE

















The 2008K hemodialysis machine is designed to perform hemodialysis in hospital,dialysis clinics and at home with a qualified operator other than the patient.It can be used for patients suffering chronic or acute renal failure. The function of the 2008K is to provide hemodialysis treatment by controlling and monitoring both the dialysate and extracorporeal blood circuits. In the extracorporeal blood circuit, the blood is continuosly circulated from the patient through a dialyzer, where toxins are filtered out through a semi-permeable membrane, before being returned to the patient.During this process, the extracorporeal blood circuit is monitored for venous and arterial blood pressures, and for the presence of air and blood. The 2008K can also administer heparin evenly throughout the treatment. In the dialysate circuit, the dialysate concentrates are mixed with purified water, heated degassed, and delivered to the dialyzer. Balancing chambers ensure that the incoming flow of the dialysate is volumetrically equal to the outgoing flow in order to control ultrafiltration from the patient.
