For people with kidney failure this will be a real salvation.

Renal failure is a very unpleasant disease. Not only is it painful, but in some cases deadly, so still have to use special machines for dialysis (purification) of blood. And while while scientists did not find a way cheaply clone bodies for transplantation, but, at least, could ease a process of treatment a little.

Lucquin has developed an Aditlys implant based on a polymer that can be connected to human blood vessels and create a synthetic vein that can then be connected to a dialysis machine. In fact, such a gateway.

Implant is a hollow framework, stimulates tissue growth and gradually dissolves in the blood after a couple of months. For stimulation, a whole range of physical and chemical effects is used.

In patients with renal insufficiency, a plastic tube is implanted into the vein, since the veins themselves do not withstand blood purification procedures. And because a new development can help.

Plus plastic catheters can easily overlap, they are also breeding grounds for microbes and, finally, require regular replacement. Aditlys, in any case, theoretically, should be much better.

Of course, there are still several years of clinical trials ahead of us and putting into operation. But, probably, in the future the implant will solve some of the problems in patients.
