As of 2007 over 2,500 people have home dialysis machines at home.
700 dialysis centers with a total of 4000 dialysis machines
They are machines and a rather large, so patients using them have limited mobility

Patients with kidney disorders need to be treated with dialysis. Devices that perform dialysis are simply called dialysis machines (dialyzers). For more information on dialysis follow the links below.
Yes!! kidney transplants would still be necessary as some patients bodies reject dialysis treatment and they resort to kidney transplant. Therefore even if dialysis machines are cheap, transplants are still required.
Machines don't control diseases, though machines might be used in the monitoring or treatment of diseases, such as:BP cuffthermometerglucose meterIVs on machines (to control drip rate of fluid)dialysis machinesventilatoretc.
My estimate is about 48,000, but is not very scientific. It is based on 4,800 centers and an average of 10 machines per center.
I am sorry but band aids are cheap and dialysis machines are expensive, Please specify what type of supplies.
Kidney failure. your body will accumulate its urine when kidneys fail.Dialysis machines are man made kidneys.
Kidney dialysis machines
Hello, u don't need to get the TMP in the Dialysis Machine, in-fact the TMP or Trans Membrane Pressure is calculated by the Hemodialysis machine (Volume controlled. The TMP depends on the time of HD (hemodialysis), the size and the kind of Dialyzer (high or low flux) u are using, the amount of fluid u want to remove and the HTK (hematocrit) or the thickness of the blood u r dialyzing. The machine takes all of that into account and calculates the TMP as well as adjusting it during the treatment. With old dialysis machines the TMP had to be calculated (pressure controled HD machines) but these machines are rarely used anymore.
