New Approach To Uremia Offers Hope For Victims
Dr Wayne Brandstadt describes a novel intestinal loop device by Dr James E Clark of Philadelphia that acts as an accessory kidney. The loop removes urea and acids via daily infused fluid, can be self operated, and avoids hospital-based artificial kidneys though leakage remains a challenge. This method could extend life for chronic uremia patients at about two dollars weekly.
