Fresenius FX 60 High Flux Dialyser

The Fresenius High Flux Dialyzer is an artificial filter containing fine hollow fibers with microscopic pores in the wall to remove toxins during hemodialysis, a special dialysis fluid flows through this filter, and bathes the fibers from the outside, while the blood flows through the hollow fiber. Due to the semi-permeable dialysis membrane, toxins, urea and other small particles can pass through the membrane.

Key Features:-

State of the Art Technology: Several state-of-the-art technologies have been combined to create the distinctive functional features of the FX dialyzers. The fiber bundle geometry, the membrane nanostructure, the flow port and the housing design all provide advantages in terms of performance, hemodynamics, dialysate flow, as well as safety and handling

Improved Design & Refined Hemodynamics: The lateral blood-inlet port provides a homogenous blood-flow path, avoiding low-velocity stagnation zones in the header region. The risk of accidental kinking of bloodlines is very low

Radial Dialysate Flow: The pinnacle structure of the polypropylene housing ensures a uniform dialysate flow around the entire fiber bundle. A high packing density of the fiber bundle and a special wavy fiber structure to avoid dialysate channelling. Combined these features enable the constant performance of all FX dialyzers

Optimum Fiber Dimensions: The reduced inner diameter and wall thickness of the fiber increase the internal filtration and minimize diffusive resistance. A significant increase of both the diffusive and convective clearances is therefore achieved, allowing the efficient removal of a broad spectrum of urinemic toxins

Dialyzer Weight: Dialyzer weight is a crucial factor not only in logistics but also in waste management. The housing of FX dialyzers is made of polypropylene. In comparison to the widely used polycarbonate, it is much lighter. The result: FX dialyzers weigh around half as much as most dialyzers.
