I’ve had my kidney transplant for over 20 years. So happy that technology has advanced to help other kidney warriors ❤

[@matthewtaylorbrown]

That was a wonderful demo, I didn't catch the brand name and have only seen the demo at the center once. PD failed me big time, so I hope I can do the needles.

[@kk12181]

Very useful. May be in about an year I may need this.

[@ivanlaboy]

Would be more helpful to see step by step of real setup on a voluntary patient.

How do i get one of this in trinidad and tobago (caribbean). My husband could do with this machine for his treatment.

What happened to the "snap and pull" technique to get rid of air during priming?

How much price of this machine ?

[@WBDavis01]

LUCY GRAY ANSWERED BELOW. She said,
"Depends entirely on your insurance. There's a lot more to home dialysis than shown here. If you are already on dialysis at a clinic, get in touch with one of the sales reps for the machine. You need to see the needle you have to use, and make sure you or a loved one can manage it. You will also need a fistula or graft if you don't already have one."

[@gary8spokane]

the machine is $ 30,000 if you were to just buy one without insurance

[@zeinabballal96]
