No-needle blood access device for hemodialysis and no-needle connecting cannula assembly (K-NOBA PAT./JAP2983540)

Our group is developing a no-needle blood access for maintenance hemodialysis. The device is made from titanium. The device is connected at the middle part of the prosthetic graft A-V shunt. It has two wells on the conduit and they are closed by shutters. The specially designed cannulas are inserted in the wells and hemodialysis is performed. Patients have no pain and good QOL. Selfcannulation and home dialysis are possible.
