Nikkiso America medical division president Thomas Kelly said: "Nikkiso America is committed to continuing our company’s legacy of innovation to improve hemodialysis treatment outcomes while also addressing the needs of the care team."
The blood volume monitor (BVM) is a unique feature of the DBB-06 System which assists the clinician in responding to the patient’s hydration status by using a continuous monitoring of the relative blood volume during treatment. The feature requires no additional disposables or cost per treatment.
The BVM has an adaptive feedback feature which allows an automatic change of fluid removal to achieve an improved outcome.
The DBB-06 System also features other aspects including ultrafiltration profiling, ultrapure dialysate, patient blood pressure monitoring and an easy data entry is facilitated by a self-prompting, intuitive touchscreen user interface.
