What You Need for Home Hemodialysis (HHD)?

To set up home hemodialysis, you will require:

• Dialysis Machine – The same type used in hospitals and dialysis centers.
• Water Treatment System – Ensures highly purified water for safe dialysis.
• Dialysis Supplies – Includes bloodlines, dialyzers, syringes, fistula needles, and more.
• Training and Support – You and your caregiver will be trained to handle the machine, monitor treatment, and manage emergencies.

Water Treatment System at Home

Tap water contains minerals and bacteria that are usually safe to drink but can be harmful during dialysis. A specialized water purification system is installed at your home, ensuring that only clean and filtered water is used for treatment.

Your system will include:

• Reverse Osmosis (RO) Filters – Removes harmful impurities.
• Charcoal Tanks and Special Filters – To further purify the water.
• Compact Design – Fits within a small cabinet space.

The MAX@Home team will train you on how to use and maintain the system efficiently.

Your doctor will prescribe the necessary dialysis supplies based on your treatment plan. These include:

• Dialyzers
• Bloodlines
• Syringes and Fistula Needles

Your supplies will be managed and delivered regularly by our logistics team, ensuring you never run out of essentials.

Additional Benefits of Home Hemodialysis

Patients who opt for short daily or nocturnal home hemodialysis often experience:

• Lower Medication Dependency – Reduced need for blood pressure and anemia medications.
• Better Energy Levels – Less fatigue and more energy to carry out daily tasks.
• Fewer Side Effects – Less nausea, cramping, and post-dialysis weakness.

New Technology for Home Dialysis

Advanced home dialysis machines are now more compact, easy to use, and require fewer supplies. Some even offer remote monitoring, allowing healthcare teams to track treatment and intervene when necessary.

Is Home Hemodialysis Right for You?

Home dialysis offers flexibility and independence, but it requires commitment. You and your caregiver will need training to handle the machine, manage supplies, and respond to any issues.

You may be a good candidate for home dialysis if:

• You are comfortable with self-care or have a trained caregiver.
• You can manage the dialysis machine and water system with training.
