Our commitment to Cardioprotective Hemodialysis — 6008 CAREsystem

Our commitment to Hemodialysis

The 6008 CAREsystem with its advanced therapy options is addressing today’s challenges of efficiency, eco-friendliness and optimized workflows, resulting in more care and less complexity.

HighVolumeHDF is an important solution for implementing hemodialysis in the 6008 CAREsystem and it is offered as a standard treatment modality.

Advanced therapies

Less complexity in advanced therapy delivery

Less complexity in advanced therapy delivery

The 6008 CAREsystem represents Fresenius Medical Care's highest standard for therapy.

By reducing necessary handling steps and simplifying workflows, renal replacement therapy becomes less complex, leaving more time for individual patient care.

The all-in-one disposable with completely pre-connected bloodlines for all treatment modalities allows for an easy switch of treatment modality and delivery of HighVolumeHDF, which provides maximum flexibility. Innovative technologies enable an air-free design and the lowest extracorporeal volume, which both contribute to minimize the risk of clotting during therapy.

Advanced therapy delivery with maximum flexibility

Advanced therapy delivery with maximum flexibility

With a design focused on superior flexibility in therapy management and innovative technologies, the 6008 CAREsystem makes renal replacement therapy easier to use than our current solutions.

  • Air-free design and lowest extracorporeal volume
  • Maximum flexibility in therapy delivery with only one disposable for HD, HighVolumeHDF, Double-Needle and Single-Needle treatments

Leveraging the benefits of HighVolumeHDF

Patients can benefit from improved outcomes2 due to HighVolumeHDF delivery:

  • HighVolume without manual interactions
  • Auto-start of ONLINE preparation after the self-test, without any manual interaction
  • Switch from HD to HDF (pre- and post-dilution) at the touch of a button

Individual therapy support

The 6008 CAREsystem offers various state-of-the-art therapy features. This includes:

  • Monitoring the effective dialysis dose
  • Advanced Fluid Management
  • Individual temperature control
  • Advanced Access Management
Pediatric therapy — 6008 CAREsystem Paed

Pediatric therapy: LOW VOLUME*

With LOW VOLUME, Fresenius Medical Care offers a hemodialysis system designed especially for the treatment of pediatric patients. It fulfils the highest quality standards for the best treatment outcomes, making HDF therapy available to children and easy to perform.

Patient and user safety

Setting benchmarks in patient safety

Setting benchmarks in patient safety

Safety should be a self-evident, non-negotiable aspect of dialysis. With over 30 years of experience, we offer intelligent safety solutions and state-of-the-art technologies, setting new benchmarks in patient and user safety. Safety with Fresenius Medical Care means a high level of security, thanks to the 6008 CAREsystem’s innovative safety features.

Various innovative features, like blood reinfusion in a closed circuit, ensure a high level of patient and workplace safety.

Fewer risk-related steps

  • Fully-integrated air-free pressure measurement makes conventional pressure transducers redundant
  • Reduced number of manual connection steps
  • Automatic connection to an integrated infusion port
  • ONLINE closed-circuit reinfusion: no arterial disconnection of patient is necessary for reinfusion

Reduced risk of adverse events

With the 6008 CAREsystem, Fresenius Medical Care offers intelligent safety features which ease daily routines, whilst at the same time supporting the nursing staff’s responsibility as therapy providers.

  • Reduced risk of external blood loss (e.g. with VAM – Venous Access Monitor, VenAcc – Wetness Detector)*
  • Reduced risk of blood coagulation1
  • Reduced risk of hemolysis  (e.g. with integrated kinking detection)

* Still, the user remains responsible for patient safety at all times during treatment.

Simplified workflows

Improved level of care quality

Improved level of care quality

When therapy management is getting more and more complex, there is a growing demand for easy operability.

In order to optimize processes and therefore achieve economic advantages for the dialysis center, the 6008 CAREsystem offers improved workflows. Intelligent technologies contribute to reducing user interactions required during set-up and disconnection phase and to lower pressure on staff. With a design focused on easy handling and usability, our product features aim to facilitate therapy delivery.

Therefore, all components of the 6008 CAREsystem are aligned to simplify routine procedures, in order to give nursing staff more time for individual patient care.

Fewer user actions required

Fewer user actions required

There is already a shortage of healthcare professionals to treat the ever-growing number of medically-challenging patients, resulting in a need for machines with advanced capabilities which can be operated easily and reliably. 

The 6008 CAREsystem offers advanced process automation which results in a reduced number of handling steps:

  • One-step setup for the priming and rinsing of the extracorporeal system
  • Switch of treatment modality at the touch of a button
  • Automatic emptying of disposables 

Improved level of care quality

Health care professionals have more time for direct patient care and patient education:

  • Fewer user interactions required during set-up and disconnection phase
  • Reduced pressure on staff
  • Advanced process automation

Direct cost savings

Optimizing economic efficiency and eco-friendliness

Optimizing economic efficiency and eco-friendliness

Ideally, a comprehensive therapeutic approach not only improves clinical outcomes but also enhances the control of therapy costs.

The 6008 CAREsystem allows you to perform advanced renal replacement therapies in a highly-efficient way, involving both Economic and environmental aspects.

The all-in-one CAREset, which has a compact design and is made of lightweight material (e.g. Biofine), simplifies logistics and reduces the weight of waste, thus contributing to the optimization of economic  efficiency and eco-friendliness.

Sensible use of resources

The 6008 CAREsystem supports the sensible and sustainable use of resources by saving operating costs and dialysate, as well as the potential reduction of waste and training efforts, which in turn can lead to significant cost savings.

In addition to advanced treatment options and economic benefits, the 6008 CAREsystem is also favorable in terms of eco-friendliness.3 Fresenius Medical Care supports the sensible and environmentally-sustainable use of resources by saving water, concentrates and energy in the use phase, without compromising treatment quality.4

Simplified logistics and reduced waste

  • All-in-one disposable: 6008 CAREset
  • Compact design and light-weight material of the 6008 CAREset
  • Automatic emptying of all disposables
