Intended Use
The Prismacomfort blood warmer is used to warm the return blood flow line in order to replace heat loss to the atmosphere and effluent flow during a Prismaflex® treatment.
Device Description
The Prismacomfort blood warmer consists of one controller and one sleeve warmer. The controller (Barkey autocontrol 3XPT) controls the sleeve warmer (Barkey autoline XPT 4R) and displays alarm and status messages. The Prismacomfort blood warmer warms the returning blood flow line by means of a silicon tube heat exchanger (applied part Barkey autoline XPT 4R) which covers the blood return flow line of the Gambro Prismaflex® system completely. The heat is transferred by the contact of the resistance heating system Barkey autoline XPT 4R to the inserted blood return line. The complete enclosure of the returning blood flow line to be warmed ensures that there are no temperature losses to the surroundings. The warmth produced by the sleeve warmer is therefore transferred to the return blood flow at maximum efficiency. The device is intended for the Prismaflex® System and may be used with any of the Prismaflex® system therapy choices, when heat loss may cause undesirable cooling of the patient.

Device Description

The Prismacomfort blood warmer consists of one controller and one sleeve warmer. The controller (Barkey autocontrol 3XPT) controls the sleeve warmer (Barkey autoline XPT 4R) and displays alarm and status messages. The Prismacomfort blood warmer warms the returning blood flow line by means of a silicon tube heat exchanger (applied part Barkey autoline XPT 4R) which covers the blood return flow line of the Gambro Prismaflex® system completely. The heat is transferred by the contact of the resistance heating system Barkey autoline XPT 4R to the inserted blood return line. The complete enclosure of the returning blood flow line to be warmed ensures that there are no temperature losses to the surroundings. The warmth produced by the sleeve warmer is therefore transferred to the return blood flow at maximum efficiency. The device is intended for the Prismaflex® System and may be used with any of the Prismaflex® system therapy choices, when heat loss may cause undesirable cooling of the patient. The warmer is powerd with 24 VDC which is derived from 115 VAC (or where required 230 VAC), 50/60 Hz power supply and is controlled by an on-off switch on the front panel of the control unit Barkey autocontrol 3XPT. Below the on-off switch is a display temperature monitor. The temperature of the sleeve warmer, visual and audible alarms, and other performance characteristics of the sleeve warmer are controlled electronically. The sleeve warmer Barkey autoline XPT 4R is constructed as a slotted enclosed silicon tube which can completely enclose inserted blood return flow lines of up to 6.55 mm diameter. The Prismacomfort weighs approx. 3.7kg and is equipped with a holder at the rear side of the control unit which allows mounting on hemodialysis system Gambro Prismaflex® system. Both products, the Prismacomfort and the Stihler prismaflo use sleeve warmers made of silicon. The flexibility of this material ensures a complete enclosure of the blood return flow line on Gambro Prismaflex® System.

§ 876.5820 Hemodialysis system and accessories.

(a)
Identification. A hemodialysis system and accessories is a device that is used as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure or toxemic conditions and that consists of an extracorporeal blood system, a conventional dialyzer, a dialysate delivery system, and accessories. Blood from a patient flows through the tubing of the extracorporeal blood system and accessories to the blood compartment of the dialyzer, then returns through further tubing of the extracorporeal blood system to the patient. The dialyzer has two compartments that are separated by a semipermeable membrane. While the blood is in the blood compartment, undesirable substances in the blood pass through the semipermeable membrane into the dialysate in the dialysate compartment. The dialysate delivery system controls and monitors the dialysate circulating through the dialysate compartment of the dialyzer.(1) The extracorporeal blood system and accessories consists of tubing, pumps, pressure monitors, air foam or bubble detectors, and alarms to keep blood moving safely from the blood access device and accessories for hemodialysis (§ 876.5540) to the blood compartment of the dialyzer and back to the patient.
(2) The conventional dialyzer allows a transfer of water and solutes between the blood and the dialysate through the semipermeable membrane. The semipermeable membrane of the conventional dialyzer has a sufficiently low permeability to water that an ultrafiltration controller is not required to prevent excessive loss of water from the patient's blood. This conventional dialyzer does not include hemodialyzers with the disposable inserts (Kiil type) (§ 876.5830) or dialyzers of high permeability (§ 876.5860).
(3) The dialysate delivery system consists of mechanisms that monitor and control the temperature, conductivity, flow rate, and pressure of the dialysate and circulates dialysate through the dialysate compartment of the dialyzer. The dialysate delivery system includes the dialysate concentrate for hemodialysis (liquid or powder) and alarms to indicate abnormal dialysate conditions. This dialysate delivery system does not include the sorbent regenerated dialysate delivery system for hemodialysis (§ 876.5600), the dialysate delivery system of the peritoneal dialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5630), or the controlled dialysate delivery system of the high permeability hemodialysis system § 876.5860).
(4) Remote accessories to the hemodialysis system include the unpowered dialysis chair without a scale, the powered dialysis chair without a scale, the dialyzer holder set, dialysis tie gun and ties, and hemodialysis start/stop tray.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards) for hemodialysis systems and all accessories directly associated with the extracorporeal blood system and the dialysate delivery system.(2) Class I for other accessories of the hemodialysis system remote from the extracorporeal blood system and the dialysate delivery system, such as the unpowered dialysis chair, hemodialysis start/stop tray, dialyzer holder set, and dialysis tie gun and ties. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

Brief Description:The Prismacomfort blood warmer is substantially equivalent in safety andeffectiveness to the legally marketed (predicate)Stihler prismaflo (510(k) Number: K020103). The Prismacomfort blood warmer is used to warm the return blood flow line in order to replace heat lost to the athmosphere and effluent flow during a Prismaflex® treatment. The Prismacomfort blood warmer consists of one controller and one sleeve warmer. The controller (Barkey autocontrol 3XPT) controls the sleeve warmer (Barkey autoline XPT 4R) and displays alarm and status messages. The Prismacomfort blood warmer warms the returning blood flow line by means of a silicon tube heat exchanger (applied part Barkey autoline XPT 4R) which covers the blood return flow line of the Gambro Prismaflex® system completely. The heat is transferred by the contact of the resistance heating system Barkey autoline XPT 4R to the inserted blood return line. The complete enclosure of the returning blood flow line to be warmed ensures that there are no temperature losses to the surroundings. The warmth produced by the sleeve warmer is therefore transferred to the return blood flow at maximum efficiency. The device is intended for the Prismaflex® System and may be used with any of the Prismaflex® system therapy choices, when heat loss may cause undesirable cooling of the patient.
