Switching to an in-house dialysis model may support health care facilities in care efforts and lead to high quality outcomes for patients, according to study data.

When home dialysis is done right, care partners quickly discover they are becoming an integral part of the process as engaged, informed participants rather than uninformed outside observers. By knowing more, care partners can worry a lot less.

As nephrology continues to advance, so must the methods for managing dialysis patients. One area ripe for innovation is the transition from peritoneal dialysis (PD) to home hemodialysis (HHD).

Right now, approximately 92,000 Americans are waiting for a kidney transplant. One good way to reduce their suffering immediately is to make dialysis a better experience while they wait. Let’s help them bring it home.

In the private sector, partnerships have helped fuel home dialysis participation. Recently, US Renal Care partnered with medical technology Outset Medical to offer patients accessible and easy-to-use home dialysis tools.

Dr. Charles Minn explains how onsite dialysis in nursing homes can enhance patient care and reduce hospital stays.

Tablo is a huge game-changer for patients. Not only can they dialyze at home, but they can set their own schedule, giving them more control over their lives.

It’s now easier for SNFs to create a wholly owned dialysis program on site whereby the patient care continuum, reimbursement, and quality are all controlled by the SNF network.

Momentum is building as rural-based home hemodialysis programs give patients back their autonomy and provide a better quality of life

Watch out for them in future versions of the Medtech Big 100.

The kidneys are responsible for regulating water balance in the body. 

Outset Medical’s Tablo machines were designed for home use and had a more user-friendly interface.

Improvements in dialysis technology are now available after decades of stagnation.

Tablo is a hemodialysis machine designed to improve patient experience and outcomes.

The new equipment should cut down time managing the equipment, giving staff more time with patients.

For organizations, digital transformation brings agility, builds resiliency, and positions a company for the future.

For example, modern dialysis equipment like the Outset Medical Tablo Hemodialysis System, designed for both home and clinical settings, has significantly simplified the process, making it more user-friendly and less burdensome for patients, care partners, and healthcare professionals alike.

The hospital bolstered that reputation when it became the first in the United States to enable patients with end-stage kidney disease to transition directly from inpatient dialysis treatment to independent treatment at home.

David Rush shares his story on how new technology has changed everything for the better!

Tablo Home Dialysis Patient, David Rush, joined Inside South Florida to share how Tablo’s Home Dialysis System has helped him navigate his kidney disease diagnosis.

This long-held, disempowering, “one-size-fits-all” standard of care has been exposed to be unsustainable in a new age of patient-centered and user-friendly dialysis technology.

David Rush joined Action News 5′s Andrew Douglas at the digital desk to talk about how his home dialysis device has helped him regain control of his life, along with advice for those considering the option.

What the future of home dialysis looks like, and what’s next for Outset Medical in 2023?

Home healthcare is getting more sophisticated everyday thanks to new technology and innovation.

“…patients and care partners performed over 5,400 tasks and had an extremely low user error rate of 0.9%”

The HCPs performed a total of 7,365 tasks with a user error rate of less than 1%.

“…we are seeing this move to home and it is also very patient focused”

The home dialysis developer’s CEO discusses leadership, leaping before you look and making medtech for the home and hospital.

The Bay Area is heartily represented in Deloitte’s annual list of fastest growing technology companies in North America.

Cynthia D’Alessandri-Silva, MD, discusses supply chain innovations for physicians and patients

“The Tablo System promises to make dialysis easier and more convenient for patients.”

…utilizing Tablo to improve the care experience for patients, families, nurses, and physicians.

David emphasizes that you can still live on dialysis.

Here’s a device that’s focused on the user, whether that’s a nurse in the hospital or it’s a patient at home.

Medtech Insight spoke with Outset Medical’s CEO Leslie Trigg about her plans for growing Tablo hemodialysis for acute and home care.

Flexibility and simplicity is key in helping to reduce the overall burden of home hemodialysis.

Transformations begin with creating the right conditions for an innovation movement.

Leslie is an amazing leader whose vision will help guide MDMA and our industry over the challenges and opportunities facing the delivery of healthcare in 21st century.

Modern technology is impacting when, where and how healthcare can be delivered. 

Outset’s Tablo Hemodialysis System is an example of a home healthcare device as it gives patients the option to dialyze in their own home.

Tablo can be used from the ICU to home, facilitating new care models and expansion of current home dialysis programs…

Outset’s “enterprise system” for dialysis now allows patients to treat themselves at home when and where they want.

“As a startup, all initiatives at home dialysis company Outset are developed by cross-functional teams.”

“Another benefit to the FDA clearance is the ability to start using an eco-friendly cartridge sterilization method through E-beam non-ionizing technology.”

“It includes a 15-inch filtration system and a cloud-connected user interface, which can deliver patient data and machine maintenance checks.”

“But the winners and honorable mentions span a gamut of issues related to medical challenges, including a new device that makes dialysis less of a burden.”
