Intended Use

The NxStage Water Purification System is a stand-alone water treatment system designed to pretreat and purify water for use in hemodialysis applications. The purified water can be used in preparation of dialysate, equipment rinsing and disinfection, and dialyzer reprocessing. It is intended to be used in a variety of environments, including acute or chronic care facility or home.

Device Story

Stand-alone water purification system for hemodialysis applications; used in acute/chronic care facilities or home. Comprised of three main components: pretreatment system (check valve, sediment filter, air vent) for sediment/air removal; Pump Controller unit for flow/pressure/quality monitoring; replaceable resin system for chemical/microbiological contaminant removal. System produces water meeting ANSI/AAMI RD62:2001 standards. Operated by end-user; controller manages system operation and safety. Output is purified water for dialysate preparation, equipment maintenance, and dialyzer reprocessing. Benefits patient by ensuring water quality for hemodialysis therapy.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance testing was conducted to characterize the system and demonstrate compliance with ANSI/AAMI RD62:2001 standards for water treatment equipment in hemodialysis applications. Results confirmed the system is suitable for its labeled indications and equivalent to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Stand-alone water purification system. Components: check valve, sediment filter, air vent, Pump Controller, and replaceable resin system. Energy source: electrical (Pump Controller). Connectivity: not specified. Sterilization: not specified. Software: embedded control and safety software for flow, pressure, and water quality monitoring. Complies with ANSI/AAMI RD62:2001.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring hemodialysis in acute care, chronic care, or home settings. Used for water pretreatment and purification for dialysate preparation, equipment rinsing/disinfection, and dialyzer reprocessing. No known contraindications.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A water purification system for hemodialysis is a device that is intended for use with a hemodialysis system and that is intended to remove organic and inorganic substances and microbial contaminants from water used to dilute dialysate concentrate to form dialysate. This generic type of device may include a water softener, sediment filter, carbon filter, and water distillation system.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a water purification subsystem disinfectant, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

#### D. Device Description/Indications for Use:

The NxStage Water Purification System is a stand-alone water System designed to pre-treat and purify water for use with hemodialysis applications. The purified water can be used in preparation of dialysate, equipment rinsing and disinfection, and dialyzer reprocessing. The System is intended to be used in a variety of environments, including an acute or chronic care facility or the home. There are no known contraindications with the use of the NxStage Water Purification System.

The System is single patient use and is comprised of three major components: 1) a pretreatment system which consists of a check valve, sediment filter and air vent to remove trapped air, sediment, and any impurities, 2) a Pump Controller unit which contains the control and safety software that controls the flow rate, monitors pressure, water quality and system operation and 3) a replaceable resin system that removes organic and inorganic chemical contaminants as well as microbiological contaminants such as bacteria and endotoxins. The System flow rate is specified by the end user.

With proper use, the System will produce water that meets or exceeds the requirements of the standard issued by the American National Standard Institute and the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation: ANSI/AAMI RD62:2001, Water Treatment Equipment for Hemodialysis Applications.

#### Indications for use:
