The device that pumps a patient's blood through a dialyzer, mixing it with dialysate to remove waste, salts, and excess fluid during hemodialysis.
A hemodialysis machine controls the extracorporeal circuit: it pumps blood from the access through a dialyzer (artificial kidney) where waste and excess fluid pass into dialysate across a semipermeable membrane, then returns cleaned blood. The machine monitors and regulates blood flow, dialysate composition and temperature, ultrafiltration rate, and pressures, with alarms for events like air in the line or a blood leak. Modern machines record session data (pressures, UF volume, conductivity) that can flow into the clinical record - the basis of machine integration in dialysis software. Water quality, machine maintenance, and disinfection are regulated for patient safety.
A medical procedure that filters waste products, excess fluids, and toxins from the blood using a dialysis machine when the kidneys can no longer perform this function adequately.
The artificial kidney component of a dialysis machine containing a semipermeable membrane that filters waste and excess fluid from blood.
The process of removing excess fluid from a patient's blood during dialysis by applying pressure across the dialyzer membrane.
The purification system that produces ultrapure water for dialysate preparation, critical for patient safety during hemodialysis.
