Tablo HD Machine Safe and Effective at Home and In-center
Safety and efficacy human trials of the easy-to-use Tablo were conducted with 28 participants who received 4 treatments per week in-center and then at home for a total of 21 weeks. Home adherence (99%) was slightly better than in-center (96%), with average prescribed—and delivered—treatments of 3.4 hours, and an average weekly standard Kt/Vurea of 2.8 in both settings. Adverse events were not related to the Tablo, and alarm resolution time was 8 seconds in-center and 5 seconds at home.
