Introducing NxStage VersiHD and the versatility it offers
Versatile solutions make home hemodialysis more flexible and adaptable to patients’ needs. Together with their health care professional, patients can decide how often, how long, where and when to perform their treatment according to their prescription.
This helps improve treatment outcomes and gives patients more freedom to live their life their way.
Versatility, advancing the flexibility of home hemodialysis
Dialyze
More frequently
Patients who perform home hemodialysis may expand their treatment time to 4 - 7 days a week if required, in order to improve their treatment outcomes.
Frequent home dialysis is associated with improved survival.1-4
In general, more frequent and/or long duration hemodialysis may be associated with:
Dialyze
whenever
Nocturnal or short-daily hemodialysis
The nocturnal hemodialysis regimen tends to be closer to the physiology of the native kidneys than conventional hemodialysis.11 In addition, nocturnal hemodialysis has been associated with comparable survival values with a deceased donor kidney transplantation.12
Patients on short-daily hemodialysis may experience less toxin and fluid buildup, have shorter post-dialysis recovery time after treatment, and have more energy.10,13
Dialyze
wherever
With the NxStage VersiHD, patients can dialyze almost in any area of their home.
PureFlow SL is designed to produce ultrapure dialysis water at a patient's home. A batch of dialysate can last up to 120 hours. It reduces the delivery, storage, and inventory management.
Pre-mixed dialysate bags are ideal for travelling.

- Reduced risk for touch point contamination sites, blood leaks and excessive air.
- The entire blood flow and dialysate pathways are disposable. There’s no need for long post-treatment heating or disinfection with dangerous chemicals.
- The cycler can simply be wiped down, and the cartridge thrown away.
NxStage VersiHD is designed for:
Your patients – Short training times and straightforward handling can open up a home treatment perspective.14
Their home – Two sources of dialysate, either different concentrations of prefabricated bags or an integrated production directly at the point of care, making major home renovations obsolete.*

- And a prepared batch lasts up to 120 hours – depending on the prescription, a patient can do multiple treatments on a single PureFlow SL batch.
- Thanks to a wheeled base, PureFlow SL can be moved around in the home setting.**
* See the user guide for source water purity requirements.
** Electrical and plumbing requirements subject to local and state regulations. This may also influence mobility within the home setting

Versatile home hemodialysis can make a difference
