Gambro introduces FleXitrate — the complete citrate-calcium offering for Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)

Oct 06, 2011 13:12 BST

Effective CRRT is largely determined by adequate anticoagulation of the extracorporeal circuit. With FleXitrate, Gambro makes performing regional citrate anticoagulation simple and safe.

FleXitrate is enabled by Prismaflex eXeed II, Gambro’s latest software improvement to the Prismaflex system. The Prismaflex eXeed II allows convective and diffusive therapies with fully integrated citrate management and calcium substitution to the patient.

In addition to integrated calcium management, FleXitrate includes Gambro’s full range of pre-formulated citrate anticoagulant solutions and calcium-free dialysis solutions for easier citrate implementation.

“FleXitrate brings together the flexibility of Prismaflex eXeed II with the complete line of Gambro solutions,” says William Clark, M.D. Vice President of Medical Strategy and Therapy Development at Gambro. “We are now offering customers a simple and cost-effective way to deliver regional citrate anticoagulation.”
