Indications for Use
This concentrate is formulated to be used with a three steam hemodialysis machine which is calibrated for acid and bicarbonate concentrates
Device Story
Naturalyte® Sodium Bicarbonate Liquid Concentrate is a chemical component used in hemodialysis. It functions as a bicarbonate source in a three-stream proportioning system. The concentrate is mixed with water and acid concentrate by the hemodialysis machine to create the final dialysate solution. It is intended for use in clinical settings by trained healthcare professionals. The device ensures proper electrolyte balance during the dialysis process, which is essential for patients with renal failure. Proper calibration of the hemodialysis machine is required to ensure the correct proportioning of the concentrate, as incorrect use may lead to patient injury or death.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is supported by chemical formulation analysis and bench testing demonstrating safety and effectiveness for the intended use.
Technological Characteristics
Liquid sodium bicarbonate concentrate for hemodialysis. Designed for use with three-stream proportioning systems. Requires water meeting ANSI/AAMI RD 62 standards. Not for parenteral use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in patients undergoing hemodialysis, specifically formulated for three-stream hemodialysis machines calibrated for acid and bicarbonate concentrates. Not for parenteral use.
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.
