Mobilysis
Portable dialysis system allows patients to have active and productive lives.
Mobilysis is an innovative concept portable dialysis system for patients who don’t have the time to run dialysis procedure several hours 3x/week. Using this system patient has the freedom to decide when and where this blood cleansing process can be done.

There are integrated catheter connection and infrared cleansing unit as well. Taking advantage of our current technology, Mobilysis can be controlled using a smartphone application with comprehensive and intuitive possibilities or user can use the buttons to perform necessary functions located on the device itself.
