xevonta^®

Dialyzer for achieving balance between elimination and retention

xevonta allows for efficient elimination of middle molecules and other uremic toxins while limiting the loss of serum albumin to 1.1±0.2g/ session. This is even the case with our largest 2.3m² surface-area dialyzer, when used under post-dilution HDF conditions using high convective volumes.¹

Importance of serum albumin

Marker for nutritional and inflammatory status of maintenance for dialysis patients²
Strong predictor for mortality³
