Intended Use
The CSAM CKHEMO rev 1.0 software computer program is a stand-alone product used to calculate total urea clearance (Kt/V), total urea clearance (Kt/V) delivered using the natural log formula, residual renal urea clearance (KrU), normalized protein catabolic rate (NPCR), actual blood flow, urea reduction ratio, body water volume calculated by urea kinetic modeling, total body water volume calculated using Watson's formula, actual weight loss after treatment, percent deviation (%Dev), and treatment time. These values are calculated using the test results of blood drawn immediately prior to and upon completion of kidney hemodialysis treatment based on the existing scientific formulas for single pool urea kinetic modeling. The device software is not meant to serve as the sole tool for determining effectiveness of treatment but as an adjunct to assist the physician in making the determination.
Device Story
CKHEMO Version 1.0 is a standalone software program for hemodialysis clinics; inputs include pre- and post-treatment blood urea test results and patient treatment data; software applies established single-pool urea kinetic modeling formulas and Watson's formula to calculate dialysis adequacy metrics (Kt/V, NPCR, urea reduction ratio, body water volume, weight loss, treatment time); output provides quantitative data to assist physicians in evaluating hemodialysis treatment effectiveness; device serves as an adjunct tool; not intended as the sole determinant of treatment efficacy.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; device relies on established scientific formulas for urea kinetic modeling.
Technological Characteristics
Standalone software application; utilizes single-pool urea kinetic modeling and Watson's formula for mathematical computation of hemodialysis parameters.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as an adjunct tool for physicians to calculate hemodialysis treatment parameters, including Kt/V, NPCR, and urea reduction ratios, based on pre- and post-treatment blood urea test results in patients undergoing kidney hemodialysis.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hemodialysis system and accessories is a device that is used as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure or toxemic conditions and that consists of an extracorporeal blood system, a conventional dialyzer, a dialysate delivery system, and accessories. Blood from a patient flows through the tubing of the extracorporeal blood system and accessories to the blood compartment of the dialyzer, then returns through further tubing of the extracorporeal blood system to the patient. The dialyzer has two compartments that are separated by a semipermeable membrane. While the blood is in the blood compartment, undesirable substances in the blood pass through the semipermeable membrane into the dialysate in the dialysate compartment. The dialysate delivery system controls and monitors the dialysate circulating through the dialysate compartment of the dialyzer.(1) The extracorporeal blood system and accessories consists of tubing, pumps, pressure monitors, air foam or bubble detectors, and alarms to keep blood moving safely from the blood access device and accessories for hemodialysis (§ 876.5540) to the blood compartment of the dialyzer and back to the patient. (2) The conventional dialyzer allows a transfer of water and solutes between the blood and the dialysate through the semipermeable membrane. The semipermeable membrane of the conventional dialyzer has a sufficiently low permeability to water that an ultrafiltration controller is not required to prevent excessive loss of water from the patient's blood. This conventional dialyzer does not include hemodialyzers with the disposable inserts (Kiil type) (§ 876.5830) or dialyzers of high permeability (§ 876.5860). (3) The dialysate delivery system consists of mechanisms that monitor and control the temperature, conductivity, flow rate, and pressure of the dialysate and circulates dialysate through the dialysate compartment of the dialyzer. The dialysate delivery system includes the dialysate concentrate for hemodialysis (liquid or powder) and alarms to indicate abnormal dialysate conditions. This dialysate delivery system does not include the sorbent regenerated dialysate delivery system for hemodialysis (§ 876.5600), the dialysate delivery system of the peritoneal dialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5630), or the controlled dialysate delivery system of the high permeability hemodialysis system § 876.5860). (4) Remote accessories to the hemodialysis system include the unpowered dialysis chair without a scale, the powered dialysis chair without a scale, the dialyzer holder set, dialysis tie gun and ties, and hemodialysis start/stop tray.
