I've been on dialysis for 10 years, this is great. The first one I saw that they were attempting was the size of a soda can, this one is amazingly small. I hope something happens soon with the technology!
Forget going to Mars somebody give this man the money so people don't have to be on dialysis for the rest of their lives
We need more people like you doctor. I wish technology could also help cancer patients
Please don't lose hope folks. I'm positively positive that our good doctors and Scientists working on this project will be successful soon. This is my sincere prayer everyday. Who said miracles don't happen. It will happen and all those suffering from ckd, pkd,on dialysis will live a normal life. May God make this project a huge success soon.🙏
Give this man a peace prize
This is Amazing . Unfortunately we hear about similar but never hear of them again . Fingers crossed this comes through .
Search KZread for kidneys. I have over 100 videos on kidney disease and artificial kidneys. Three colleges Univ of Calif at San Francisco, Wisconsin, and Vanderbilt are working on different versions of a artificial kidney. Each college is looking for test subjects. Hang in there because artificial kidneys will be powered by your heat beat. You will not need to store tons of liquid or take a huge number of pills. So hang in there. I am on dialysis too so keep your head up and never give up the fight!
The funding should come from Medicare. They’d spend billions on dialysis patients, when this could restore health to those patients.

I would like to know where I can get this Bio Artificial Kidney Transplantation done at now. I've been on dialysis for over Three years now. And would like to get one as soon as possible
Somebody surpass already this project. The modified pig kidney is already been done in Boston Masachusetts.
When does work in this year and plz the price.thx
Why there is no further progress in two years??
When is going to be available?
Well I know 2020 will not yield a blessing like this but I pray 2021 and 2022 will show advancements for me and many other on dialysis. We've been waiting on these artificial kidneys for years. I don't care which version hits the market first but we need to start saving lives.
No one care of us howmuch we suffer.

@@ziggy56060 Hang in there. Three colleges are working on developing a artificial kidney (see my comment on main page) It is tough I have been hospitalized many times. There is a new portable dialysis machine that you can use at home without all of the supplies. Help is on the way but you must do your best to remain as healthy as possible. Take your meds and follow your diet. I wish you the best of health.

Everyone talking about Artificial kidney.. but can someone really bring it on to the use. Iam getting pop up in KZread... everytime this happens I go find whether it's available for us. Unfortunately it's either 1or 2 years old video... which says it should be in in an year's time .. it's kind of wishes circle
