A miniaturised kidney dialysis machine with fluid
control capability for newborn babies has been developed. The dialyzer operates with a much lower
volume of blood and very low blood and ultrafiltration flows. The device allows the use of a small catheter
preventing damage to a baby’s blood vessels.
It has been successfully tested on a critically ill newborn baby. The patient was discharged from intensive
care after 39 days.
