PrisMax Critical Care System
An advanced extracorporeal therapy system co-created with 650+ HCPs
We asked more than 650 ICU healthcare practitioners, from over 50 ICUs worldwide, what it would take to solve their greatest challenges in treating critically ill patients. The PrisMax System was designed to help meet these needs, building upon our Prismaflex technology and more than 30 years of experience in advancing critical care delivery.

Unlock the potential of the ICU
The PrisMax System can help improve treatment accuracy, increase workflow efficiency, and simplify therapy setup and delivery.
Fluid removal catch-up
- Uses intelligent pump adjustments to help meet prescribed fluid removal targets and deliver accurate treatments.
- Allows treatment interruptions for up to 10 minutes per instance without impacting prescribed patient fluid removal.
TherMax blood warmer
- Enables precise control of blood return temperature between 35 °C and 38 °C, all managed through the PrisMax System interface.*
- Independent from fluid flow rates and therapy interruptions.
*Cooling only through therapy fluids; no active cooling of blood through the warmer.
Smart alarms
Reduce device interactions and treatment interruptions.
Scale stability software helps prevent false alarms caused by bags moving.
Advanced pressure management minimizes sudden pressure spikes caused by moving the patient.
Therapy profiles
- Saves customized prescription settings for consistency and to accelerate setup.
Auto-effluent drain
- Precise gravimetric weighing of effluent, now with the choice of disposal using a bag or a drain.
Liquid level sensor
- Automatically adjusts fluid height in the deaeration chamber, reducing the need to perform this function manually.
Adjustable high-resolution screen
- Rotates and tilts for multidirectional viewing.
- Large 15" display helps make checking therapy easier.
Intuitive touchscreen interface
- Color-coded, step-by-step on-screen instructions help simplify setup and therapy management.
- Completed steps are automatically confirmed with check marks.
- Continuously displayed critical information facilitates therapy monitoring.
Color-coded scales
- Supplementary LEDs quickly identify the bag needing intervention.
Our assessment of the PrisMax System across seven ICUs in six countries concluded that the device features several important enhancements that contribute to safety, efficiency and user friendliness. The launch of PrisMax is a big step forward for clinicians’ abilities to treat patients in the ICU more effectively.1
