A unique membrane technology

As the hemodialyzer with expanded solute removal profile, Theranova dialyzer and its MCO membrane enable HDx therapy to provide expanded hemodialysis.1


HDx therapy - one step closer to the natural kidney

HDx therapy enabled by the first-of-its-kind Theranova dialyzer provides expanded hemodialysis therapy. Thanks to the technology of its MCO membrane, it brings expanded filtration closer to the natural kidney2, removes large-middle uremic toxins linked to cardiovascular disease, inflammation and other dialysis-related comorbidities.3

Improving outcomes with no additional requirements

By simply changing high-flux hemodialysis to Theranova dialyzer with MCO membrane, diffusion and convection are conveniently combined inside the hollow fiber dialyzer to perform HDx therapy, with no special requirement of a particular hardware, preparation of replacement fluid, or additional nursing skill, beyond what is necessary to perform traditional hemodialysis in standard mode.4
