Hey guys, I saw some news about the dialysis machine you can wear so that you can travel with it. Very convenient, does it exist? what dialysis are you using right now? because in here, we are still using the traditional methods and it makes the artery vessels distorted sometimes.

To my knowledge,  there was one been used back in the 80's when I was in dialisys,  mainly to travel in plane ,train or cruise, but I never got the details, as of how reliable, not sure, I have not done research, Danny, but it has to be super advance and portable now, since I remember seeing the article back in 1983

This prototype is in stage 2 of design and testing I think.

There are a few 'semi' portable machines such as the Quanta and NXstage, but you need a car or van to travel with them, ideally.
