Why Choose the Peristaltic Pump in Dialysis?

What is dialysis?

Dialysis is the medical solution for lost kidney functions in people with kidney failure. Dialysis has two types optional, hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Both treatments aim to remove waste and excess water from the blood and are used primarily as an artificial replacement.

Hemodialysis is generally completed by a hemodialysis machine, which is mainly composed of an extracorporeal blood circulation system, a dialysate channel, circuit control and monitoring, and a human-computer interaction device. The extracorporeal blood circulation system includes a blood pump, heparin pump, arteriovenous pressure monitoring, air monitoring, and venous tube clamping tissue, etc. The blood pump generally uses a peristaltic pump to push the blood forward.

Why choose the peristaltic pump in dialysis as the “blood pump”?

1. The shearing force of the peristaltic pump is relatively small and will not cause damage to blood cells, so this is important because blood cells are the most important thing in the blood. Once the blood cells are damaged, the transmitted blood will have no activity.

2. The medical dialysis pump needs high-accuracy flow. The peristaltic pump can achieve high precision to ensure the medical treatment dosing.

3. Peristaltic pump provides a stable flow of blood to avoid injury.

4. The blood only contacts the inner wall of the peristaltic pump tubing, and there is no need for valves and seals in the peristaltic pump, which completely avoids cross-contamination between the transmission liquid and the pump. Aseptic operation of dialysis equipment can be achieved through the use of disposable tubing that meets hygienic requirements.
