Redsense approved for home hemodialysis in the US
In the US, the Redsense alarm has been approved for use during hemodialysis in the clinical setting since 2007. Now, with the latest FDA clearance, hemodialysis users at home can also benefit from the added safety of the Redsense blood loss detection device. There is no similiar product available on the market. The Redsense alarm is already approved for use in both clinic and at home in Europe and in Canada.
Intended use in the US, from May 10th 2010:
The Redsense device is intended to monitor for potential blood loss from the hemodialysis access site in hemodialysis patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment up to 5 hours at home or in the clinical setting. The device includes a blood sensor incorporated into an adhesive dressing. The sensor monitors potential blood leakage from the needle puncture via an infrared light and will alarm if needle dislodgement or blood leakage is detected. All use must be administrated under physician’s prescription, and must be observed by a trained and qualified person considered to be competent in the use of this device by the prescribing physician.
