Product catalog summary
Overview of the PRISMAFLEX System
The PRISMAFLEX System is a versatile platform designed for Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) and Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) for patients weighing 20 kilograms or more. It allows for customization to meet specific patient needs, offering a solution for multiple therapies on a single platform.
Specifications and Capabilities
The system supports various blood flow rates (100-250 mL/min) and plasma filtration rates, with a maximum transmembrane pressure (TMP) of 193 mmHg at the highest blood flow rate. The PRISMAFLEX TPE 2000 Set features a polypropylene fiber membrane with an effective surface area of 0.35m² and is intended for use in TPE procedures.
Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) Process
TPE on the PRISMAFLEX System involves plasma filtration with simultaneous infusion of a replacement solution. The system calculates Access Transmembrane Pressure (TMPa) using monitored pressure values, ensuring efficient plasma removal and replacement.
Features and Benefits
The system offers built-in prescription assistance, pre-connected TPE sets with auto-recognition, and integrated anticoagulant and infusion pre-blood pump (PBP). It provides safety features like pre-filling the TPE circuit with blood and a self-regulating pressure system. The intuitive user interface and disposable TPE 2000 Set enhance ease of use.
Operational and Economic Advantages
Hospitals can use the PRISMAFLEX System for both TPE and CRRT, reducing the need for additional machines and potentially decreasing maintenance costs. The system's compatibility with various membranes allows for tailored patient care. Training for TPE is similar to CRRT, streamlining the learning process for healthcare providers.
Ordering and Support
Existing Baxter customers can easily add PRISMAFLEX TPE Sets to their orders. Baxter offers 24/7 clinical support and training resources, ensuring healthcare providers can confidently utilize the latest TPE technology.
Usage Guidelines
The PRISMAFLEX TPE 2000 Set is intended for adult use under physician supervision, considering patient-specific factors such as size, weight, and health status. Patients with bleeding tendencies require close monitoring, and treatment should be discontinued if uncorrectable acute hemorrhage occurs.

The PRISMAFLEX System-3

Filtering Out Disease Mediators Plasma exchange on the PRISMAFLEX System is achieved by plasma filtration with simultaneous infusion of a replacement solution. During Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE), plasma is removed and pumped through the large-pore membrane of the plasma filter, while a colloid solution, such as albumin and/or plasma, or a combination of crystalloid/colloid solution, is infused post-plasma filter to replace the removed plasma. During TPE, PRISMAFLEX Software uses monitored pressure values to calculate Access Transmembrane Pressure (TMPa), in addition to the filter pressure...
