Despite significant improvements in the quality and efficacy of hemodialysis therapy in recent years, cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of death for dialysis patients. Today, almost every other dialysis patient dies from cardiovascular complications. Fresenius Medical Care supports nephrologists worldwide in minimizing their patients’ risks for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

HighVolumeHDF therapy as well as innovative membranes like Helixoneplus and modern monitoring features like the Blood Volume Monitor, together with ultrapure dialysis fluid, help minimize CVD risk factors and significantly improve the quality and efficacy of hemodialysis therapy.

CRRT — A reliable, effective option

Fresenius Medical Care offers a variety of therapies to treat acute kidney injury (AKI). Treatment is aimed at meeting each patient's specific needs, and is usually provided in critical care or intensive care unit (ICU) settings.

While chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a gradual reduction in kidney function over time, AKI is sudden damage to the kidneys for various reasons such as reduced blood supply to the kidneys from a heart attack or major surgery, damage to kidney tissue by certain medicines, radioactive dye or severe infection and urine flow obstruction from kidney stones or an enlarged prostate.
The injury is often short-term and kidney function recovers over time. AKI is treated with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) to mimic the kidney's natural functions

At Fresenius Medical Care we are committed to addressing individual needs in the treatment of children on renal replacement therapy. Children vary in age, body size and underlying medical condition, and they all come from different family situations: There are many factors which influence the choice of the right treatment for a child.

Fresenius Medical Care offers a broad range of dialysis products for each individual situation and therapy fulfilling the highest quality standards in the areas of:

• Acute and chronic peritoneal dialysis
• Chronic hemodialysis
• Acute kidney injury
