Clinical Application: Hemodialysis

Customer

Gambro leads the market in renal care development and has brought many groundbreaking innovations to the market.

Story

Gambro Lundia, a division in Sweden, partnered with SunTech to not only integrate automated BP into its dialysis systems but also to improve the reliability and accuracy of its measurement. SunTech worked with one of Gambro Lundia’s customers, a hemodialysis clinic in New Brunswick, Canada, in order to further develop and validate the BP measurement performance and safety on end-stage renal disease patients.

Success

Despite the significant challenge of dealing with the hemodynamic changes associated with dialysis, a specialized, high-performance algorithm was developed and validated to the highest standards of the British Hypertension Society (BHS) with an A/A grade.
