What is NxStage®* System One?
System One is a portable hemodialysis system with an interface, that allows for easier set-up and is designed for use at home. It provides flexibility to make home hemodialysis (HHD) a practical reality.
Zooming into the System
NxStage® System One offers two dialysate sources. The first one is via PureFlow SL, in which a batch of dialysate can be prepared directly at home and warmed up for the treatment. The second one is via dialysate bags as an alternative for home patients, to avoid the installation of a reverse osmosis system or PureFlow SL.
Cartridge Express
Cartridge Express
Home HD treatments with NxStage® System One are supported by a custom designed cartridge, that is called the Cartridge Express and includes the integrated dialyser and bloodlines, which facilitates an easier set-up.
Potential benefits:
- Reduced risk for user errors related to dialyzer connections due to the connection of the dialyzer to the cartridge during manufacturing
- Reduced risk of touch point contamination sites
- Simpler, less time-consuming stocking levels for inventory management2
