Artificial Liver
The Artificial Liver is a medical device used for life support to both bridge and sustain a patient's end-stage liver failure and provide a bridge to liver transplantation. The Artificial Liver significantly improves the quality of life for those suffering from liver failure and can provide a viable therapeutic option for those who may not be eligible for a liver transplant. The device uses a combination of synthetic and biological materials to provide the vital liver functions and has been approved for use in humans in some countries. The Artificial Liver can help reduce extensive hospital stays and minimize the need for organ transplantation, thus offering the potential to improve patient outcomes, reduce costs, and improve overall quality of care.
