The water treatment, essential to the quality of the treatments, is carried out in our clinics with the most recent equipment available, which allow us to become pioneers in the introduction of new and more convective alternatives in the dialysis treatment.
For greater safety, all of the main equipment has been doubled: sand filters, pressurised pumps, decalcifiers, charcoal filters, filter cartridges, reverse osmosis, treated water circulation pumps and water deposits. Our Water System Treatment guarantees the rigorous compliance with microbiological and chemical quality guidelines for water, as defined by the European Best Practices Guidelines and by the Good Hemodialysis Practices Manual.
