Nicklaus Children’s Hospital has acquired Mozarc Medical’s Carpediem™ Cardio Renal Pediatric Dialysis Emergency Machine designed to support dialysis treatment of newborns with acute kidney injury and fluid overload. The hospital is the first in Florida to offer this new system designed to optimize care for the smallest patients.
Created on a miniaturized platform, the device provides continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) for patients weighing between 2.5 and 10 kilograms. The device is designed to deliver treatment with precise control by including high-precision scales and sensors to monitor fluid balance, blood leaks and air bubbles.
“CRRT treatments have been far more challenging in infants because dialysis equipment has not been perfectly suited for the care of the smallest and most fragile patients,” said Dr. Nicole M. Christin, medical director of the dialysis unit at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital and chief of pediatric nephrology for Nicklaus Children’s Pediatric Specialists. “The Carpediem system is a terrific advancement, designed expressly to meet the need of our youngest patients. It enhances the precision of neonatal CRRT treatment and lowers exposure to risks, enabling us to provide the very best possible care to children in our community and beyond.”
The new equipment is offered in the Nicklaus Children’s Level IV Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, a regional referral center for newborns requiring highly advanced care.
