What is it indicated for?

The FX CorAL hemodialyzers are intended for single use only for extracorporeal blood purification during intermittent renal replacement therapies hemodialysis (HD), hemodiafiltration (HDF) using pre-, post or mixed-dilution modes, and isolated ultrafiltration for patients suffering from renal insufficiency, including pediatric patients.

Consider body and dialyzer surface area, blood flow, body weight and extracorporeal blood volume when selecting dialyzers for use with pediatric patients.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
