Breathing Kidney - Mobile CAPD (Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis) Kit
BREATHING KIDNEY is designed for patients who are on dialysis. It is an all-in-one carrier that stores all the items required for treatment, and all the functions are made to be easily operated through the smartphone APP. With the use of this all-in-one carrier and APP, preparation and steps for carrying out CAPD treatment are greatly improved.
BREATHING KIDNEY can be carried around at home, at a workplace or on the road. A wider handle allows balance and stability when hanging dialysis solution. Pre-set heating function on the smartphone APP saves time and avoids dialysis solution damage from over-heating. A slide cover lets the patient easily reach supplies even in a tight space. A pull rod combines electronic weighing scale function and serves as a dialysate hanger.
Rotate to turn on the electronic weighing scale and the data will be recorded via a mobile APP. The spare batteries could also be recharged via a home battery charger. BREATHING KIDNEY is designed to simplify CAPD operation and improve the patient's quality of life.
