I got to learn how the NxStage Home Dialyzer is setup and emergency steps. Here's what it looks like close-up.

Is that the system that you can travel with?

[furrbear.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it weighs about 75lbs. 20L dialysate/day.

Mfr will ship supplies anywhere you'll be if over 3 days, IIRC.

Could travel with either of the Peritoneal units, Baxter's or Fresenius'. I thought Baxter's was better designed.

He's still a cutie.

I use that on my mom. Lifting it and getting it set up is like a miny work out.

I'm always surprised that this sort of tech always looks like something out of a 70's SF movie.

on the back are four USB ports, RJ-45 enet, and RJ-11 POTS. It has leds for power and HDD.
