Indications for Use
Hemodialysis with an ELISIO™-H hemodialyzer is indicated for patients with acute or chronic renal failure when conservative therapy is judged to be inadequate. It also may be indicated in the treatment of patients intoxicated with poisons or drugs. The device is for prescription use only. This product is intended for single use only. The performance properties of reused dialyzers have not been established.
Device Story
ELISIO-H hemodialyzer functions as artificial kidney; treats acute/chronic renal failure or intoxication. Device utilizes polyethersulfone fiber membrane; blood circulates through blood compartment while dialysate flows countercurrent; toxins/fluid transfer across membrane. Used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals. Modification adds two sizes (-09H and -25H) to existing product line. Provides effective solute removal and fluid management for patients.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Polyethersulfone fiber membrane; polypropylene housing. High permeability hemodialysis system. Single-use, prescription device. Dimensions vary by membrane surface area.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with acute or chronic renal failure requiring hemodialysis when conservative therapy is inadequate, and for patients intoxicated with poisons or drugs.

Identification
A high permeability hemodialysis system is a device intended for use as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure, fluid overload, or toxemic conditions by performing such therapies as hemodialysis, hemofiltration, hemoconcentration, and hemodiafiltration. Using a hemodialyzer with a semipermeable membrane that is more permeable to water than the semipermeable membrane of the conventional hemodialysis system (§ 876.5820), the high permeability hemodialysis system removes toxins or excess fluid from the patient's blood using the principles of convection (via a high ultrafiltration rate) and/or diffusion (via a concentration gradient in dialysate). During treatment, blood is circulated from the patient through the hemodialyzer's blood compartment, while the dialysate solution flows countercurrent through the dialysate compartment. In this process, toxins and/or fluid are transferred across the membrane from the blood to the dialysate compartment. The hemodialysis delivery machine controls and monitors the parameters related to this processing, including the rate at which blood and dialysate are pumped through the system, and the rate at which fluid is removed from the patient. The high permeability hemodialysis system consists of the following devices:(1) The hemodialyzer consists of a semipermeable membrane with an in vitro ultrafiltration coefficient (K uf ) greater than 8 milliliters per hour per conventional millimeter of mercury, as measured with bovine or expired human blood, and is used with either an automated ultrafiltration controller or anther method of ultrafiltration control to prevent fluid imbalance.(2) The hemodialysis delivery machine is similar to the extracorporeal blood system and dialysate delivery system of the hemodialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5820), with the addition of an ultrafiltration controller and mechanisms that monitor and/or control such parameters as fluid balance, dialysate composition, and patient treatment parameters (e.g., blood pressure, hematocrit, urea, etc.). (3) The high permeability hemodialysis system accessories include, but are not limited to, tubing lines and various treatment related monitors (e.g., dialysate pH, blood pressure, hematocrit, and blood recirculation monitors).
