SAM is a web application used to obtain, track and trend patient data pertaining to the management of anemia, and to provide a schedule of erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) dosage recommendations to help achieve and maintain target hemoglobin (Hgb) levels in hemodialysis patients. The device is intended to help clinicians manage chronic anemia.

The device is not a substitute for, but rather intended to assist, clinical judgment. The ESA dosing regimen options calculated by this device are intended to inform the optimization of the dosage of ESAs in accordance with their approved labeling in conjunction with clinical history, symptoms, and other diagnostic measurements, as well as the clinicians' judgment. No medical decision should be based solely on the patient Hgb response to dosing regimen options calculated by this device.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
