Human factors testing of the Quanta SC+ hemodialysis system: An innovative system for home and clinic use

Abstract

Introduction: Uptake rates of home hemodialysis are the lowest among all modality types, despite providing patients with clinical and quality of life benefits at a lower cost to providers. Currently, there is a need to develop dialysis systems that are appealing to patients while also being suitable for use across the continuum of care. The SC+ hemodialysis system was developed by Quanta Dialysis Technologies Ltd. to provide patients with a dialysis system that is small, simple to use, and powerful enough to deliver acceptable dialysis adequacy.
