Wearable Artificial Organs

Wearable Artificial Organs is a private U.S. medical device company developing portable and wearable renal replacement technologies intended to reduce the burden of conventional dialysis. Its lead program is the Wearable Artificial Kidney, a miniaturized continuous dialysis device designed to improve mobility, reduce treatment restrictions, and avoid fistula-based access burdens associated with standard in-center care. The company also presents PCRRT, a cordless portable continuous renal replacement therapy system aimed at critically ill patients who need continuous dialysis support. The business is focused on kidney failure and dialysis innovation rather than therapeutics, and its devices are not yet commercially available. Wearable Artificial Organs appears to be in late R&D with additional human studies still required before FDA approval.
