What types of dialysis treatments is Tablo® used for?

Tablo is a true enterprise solution that can be used from the ICU to the clinic to the home. Treatments must be administered under a physician’s prescription and observed by a trained individual who is competent in the device's use. Treatment types available include: Intermittent Hemodialysis (IHD), Sustained Low Efficiency Dialysis (SLED/SLEDD), Prolonged Intermittent Renal Replacement Therapy (PIRRT), and Isolated Ultrafiltration. The device is not indicated for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and is cleared for use up to 24 hours. The dialysate generated by this device is not sterile and should not be used for intravenous (IV) infusion.

What kind of training is involved? How long does it take?

For clinicians, training on Tablo is quicker and easier than traditional dialysis machines, with most nurses trained in under 4 hours. Outset also provides support in specific knowledge areas like vascular access and dialysis basics. Patients and care partners can learn all device-related activities for home use in less than 4 training sessions, or about 2 weeks. Training covers device operation, vital sign monitoring, medication administration, aseptic techniques, machine maintenance, and emergency troubleshooting.

What kind of support does Outset provide?

Outset provides expertise, commitment, and hands-on experience to help integrate Tablo into dialysis programs or home settings. For provider-specific services, visit the Services page. For home dialysis information, see the Patients page.

What is MyTablo® and TabloHub®?

MyTablo and TabloHub are online portals for accessing data from Tablo systems, including treatment flow sheets and training materials. These portals provide on-demand access, reducing delays in obtaining reports and training materials.

How do I get a Tablo? Is there a provider that offers Tablo near me?

If you're unsure if your clinic offers Tablo, fill out the patient contact form or contact your provider directly.

What does home training for Tablo look like?

Training involves guided sessions with a home dialysis nurse. In just a few days, patients and a family member or friend can learn to use Tablo at home.

How does Tablo differ from other home dialysis machines?

Tablo's all-in-one design, touchscreen interface, and smart sensors make it user-friendly, saving space and time. It purifies water, produces dialysis on-demand, and personalizes schedules. The system alerts users to issues, helping them resolve alarms quickly.

Can I travel with the Tablo in an RV or a larger vehicle?

A USB key stores your treatment data so you can arrange in-center dialysis while traveling, eliminating the need to carry your dialysis machine.

I’m interested in implementing a home program with Tablo. Where do I start?

Does Tablo work without TabloCart™?

Yes, Tablo operates fully without TabloCart. Customers with harsh incoming water may experience more frequent filter changes without the cart's prefiltration.

What does the TabloCart prefiltration option include?

TabloCart with prefiltration includes large-capacity sediment and carbon filters, a backflow preventer, and a booster pump to remove sediment and minerals from supply water before it enters Tablo’s integrated Water Purification System.

General

What kind of training is involved? How long does it take?

For clinicians, training on Tablo is typically quicker and easier than traditional dialysis machines. Most nurses can be trained on Tablo in under 4 hours. Outset also offers services to support specific knowledge areas, like vascular access and the basics of dialysis care.

Patients and care partners are typically able to learn all device-related activities to start using Tablo at home in less than 4 training sessions, or about 2 weeks. During the training, the patient and care partner will learn how to operate the Tablo system, monitor vital signs, administer medication, master aseptic technique, perform machine maintenance and troubleshoot emergency situations. The clinic will conduct training, and determine when a patient is ready to start treating at home.

What does home training for Tablo look like?

You’ll get to know Tablo with all the support you need from your clinical team. You’ll have guided training on Tablo by the home dialysis nurse at your clinic. In just a few days, you will be trained to dialyze at home with help from a family member or friend.
How does Tablo differ from other home dialysis machines?
The Tablo machine’s all-in-one design, easy to learn and use touchscreen interface, and smart sensors allow it to:

Save you space and time. Tablo quickly purifies water and produces dialysis on-demand, removing the need for premixed batches of dialysate or bags of purified water to run treatments.

Allows you to personalize your dialysis schedule.

Keep your same 3x per week dialysis schedule or dialyze more frequently

Get set up quickly – it takes less than 20 minutes to set up and start treatment

Alert you when something needs your attention, and allows you to resolve alarms quickly. For example, Tablo can sense when there is air in the tubing or when your blood pressure is not within your normal range – and help you resolve the issue. Most patients can resolve alarms in less than 5 seconds.

Keep track of your treatment data for you and wirelessly transfer your treatment records to your healthcare provider.

Does Tablo work without TabloCart^™?

Yes. TabloCart is an optional accessory for the Tablo Hemodialysis System. Tablo operates fully and can successfully deliver dialysis treatments without TabloCart. Customers with harsh incoming water may experience a higher frequency of integrated filter changes on Tablo without TabloCart’s prefiltration option.
What does the TabloCart prefiltration option include?

When TabloCart is configured with prefiltration, the cart has replaceable, large-capacity cartridge filters (sediment and/or carbon) that serve as “prefilters” to help remove sediment and minerals from supply water before it enters the Tablo System’s integrated Water Purification System. The cart with prefiltration also includes a backflow preventer and a booster pump to transport water from the incoming supply to the Tablo System.
