HD+ has the exclusive advantage of being able to apply advanced MECS technology to hemodialysis. 

This technology, originally co-invented by Dr. Kevin Drost, Director of the Center for Microtechnology-based Energy, Chemical & Biological Systems,  will allow the HD+ system to be highly efficient, producing better treatment results within a smaller sized unit.  Because the size of the dialyzer and water pasteurizer are both dramactically reduced, the overall system shrinks in size. 


HD+ Advantage: MECS Water Treatment Pasteurization

• Meets AAMI Microbiological Standard for infusible dialysate
• All purification components contained within the system for portability
• Dialysate is prepared real time from tap water, not batched

HD+ Advantage: MECS Dialyzer

• Significant reduction in the amount of dialysate needed, leading to a smaller and more portable dialysis machine
• Same membrane as in current dialyzers with highly optimized diffusion characteristics
• Less blood damage due to reduced exposure to foreign materials and lower mechanical stress
• Small priming volume (>20 ml) is optimal for pediatric and acute care

HD+ Advantage: Dialysate Mixing

• Dialysate concentrates contained in a single, easy to handle, portable cartridge
• Dialysate prepared real time using bicarbonate based dialysate instead of lactate for a significant clinical advantages
• Core patented technology for proportioning module licensed
