Official Title: Reduction of Microemboli of Air Using a New Developed Air Trap (EmbolessTM) During Haemodialysis
Brief Summary:
During hemodialysis (HD) the blood of the patient pass an extracorporeal circuit that contains a dialyzer for rinsing and a venous chamber (air trap) to prevent from air embolism through the return blood into the patient.However, air traps in clinical use have limited capacity to prevent from microemboli of air to enter the return bloodline and deposit as emboli in the body such as lungs, heart and brain.The Investigator developed the air trap Emboless that was patented.In vitro studies showed significantly better…
