FDA Clearance Information

Pathway 510K
Decision Date July 7, 2000
Product Code KDI
Device Class Class 2
Evidence 8 studies

The Phoenix Hemodialysis Delivery System by Gambro Renal Products was cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on July 7, 2000. It is classified as a Class 2 device under product code KDI.

What It Is

The Phoenix Hemodialysis Delivery System is a sophisticated machine designed to perform hemodialysis, a process that removes waste products and excess fluid from the blood when the kidneys are not functioning properly. It works by circulating the patient’s blood through a dialyzer, where it is cleaned before being returned to the body. This system is essential for patients with chronic kidney disease or acute kidney injury requiring renal replacement therapy.

Clinical Applications

This device is commonly used in outpatient dialysis centers and hospitals. It is crucial for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who require regular dialysis sessions, typically three times a week. Nephrologists and dialysis nurses are the primary users, and it is also used in acute settings for patients with temporary kidney failure. The system is adaptable for both adult and pediatric populations.

Indications for Use

The Phoenix Hemodialysis Delivery System is indicated for patients with kidney failure who need hemodialysis to remove waste and excess fluid from their blood. It is suitable for those with chronic kidney disease or acute kidney injury.

Practical Considerations

The device is compatible with standard hemodialysis blood tubing sets and dialyzers. Clinicians should ensure proper setup and calibration before each session. Regular maintenance and checks are necessary to ensure optimal performance and patient safety.
