Sized to Body Surface Area
The 1.4 m² membrane matches the circulating blood volume and BSA of paediatric patients — instead of forcing a full adult dialyzer onto a small circulatory system.
Sized specifically for children on hemodialysis. Smaller membrane surface area, lower priming volume, and a safety profile that matches paediatric circulation — not scaled-down adult equipment.
Paediatric haemodialysis uses smaller circuits, lower blood flow rates, and dialyzers sized to the child's body surface area. Using adult-sized equipment in paediatric care risks haemodynamic instability and unnecessary blood loss. Kibellan stocks dedicated paediatric dialyzers for children's dialysis units across Kenya.
Paediatric haemodialysis is a specialist discipline. The dialyzer choice affects haemodynamic stability, clearance efficiency, and total blood loss.
The 1.4 m² membrane matches the circulating blood volume and BSA of paediatric patients — instead of forcing a full adult dialyzer onto a small circulatory system.
Smaller dialyzer and lower-volume bloodline combination minimises extracorporeal blood volume — reducing the risk of hypotensive episodes during sessions.
PES membrane with high-flux capability provides effective clearance of middle-molecular toxins — critical for children on long-term dialysis as they grow.
A quick reference for procurement teams — surface area directly affects clearance and priming volume.
Matches small body surface area and circulating blood volume in paediatric patients.

Children have a much lower total blood volume and body surface area than adults. Using an adult-sized dialyzer on a child can remove too much fluid, cause haemodynamic instability, and lead to significant blood loss in the extracorporeal circuit. Paediatric dialyzers have a smaller 1.4 m² membrane surface area and lower priming volume so the circuit is sized in proportion to the child's circulation.
1.4 m². This is smaller than the 1.8, 2.0 and 2.1 m² dialyzers used for adults, and is designed to match the body surface area and clearance needs of paediatric patients.
This is a high-flux paediatric dialyzer with a PES membrane. High flux provides better clearance of middle-molecular toxins like beta-2-microglobulin — important for paediatric patients on long-term dialysis. Your paediatric nephrologist selects flux type based on clinical need.
