## Recalls of this device
- Jun 30, 2026 · Class II · Z-3017-2026: Fresenius Medical Care Renal Therapies Group, LLC (FMCRTG) has received complaints regarding flow-, no water-, or temperature-related alarms with the 2008T BlueStar Hemodialysis machines.

## Indications for use
2008T BlueStar Hemodialysis Machine: The 2008T BlueStar Hemodialysis Machine is indicated for acute and chronic dialysis therapy in a healthcare facility. Additional therapy options for patients receiving hemodialysis include: Isolated Ultrafiltration, Sustained Low Efficiency Dialysis (SLED), and low volume hemodialysis (patients weighing = 20 kg and =40 kg). This machine accommodates the use of both low flux and high flux dialyzers. The SLED therapy option is not to be used for patients weighing < 40 kg. The 2008T BlueStar Hemodialysis Machine is not to be used for plasma replacement therapies, for patients weighing less than 20 kg, or for renal therapies using substitution fluid. bibag System (Optional): The bibag system is used with three stream proportioning Hemodialysis Machines equipped with the bibag module such as the 2008T BlueStar Hemodialysis Machine and intended for use in bicarbonate hemodialysis for acute and chronic renal failure. The bibag is intended for extracorporeal bicarbonate hemodialysis according to a physician’s prescription. Crit-Line Clip Monitor (CLiC) (Optional): The Crit-Line Clip Monitor is used with the 2008T BlueStar Hemodialysis Machine to non-invasively measure hematocrit, oxygen saturation and percent change in blood volume. The CLiC device measures hematocrit, percent change in blood volume and oxygen saturation in real time for application in the treatment of dialysis patients with the intended purpose of providing a more effective treatment for both the dialysis patient and the clinician. Based on the data that the monitor provides, the clinician/nurse, under physician direction, intervenes (i.e., increases or decreases the rate at which fluid is removed from the blood) in order to remove the maximum amount of fluid from the dialysis patient without the patient experiencing the common complications of dialysis which include nausea, cramping and vomiting.
