About Us

  • Nephros was founded in 1997, by healthcare professionals affiliated with Columbia University Medical Center, initially to address the needs of chronic renal failure patients. The company has developed an alternative to current hemodialysis therapy known as Mid-dilution hemodiafiltration (mid-HDF). Nephros’ proprietary blood purification technologies enable mid-HDF to be offered to chronic renal failure patients. Nephros mid-dilution filters remove a range of harmful substances, specifically substances known as middle molecules, which have been linked to conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, dialysis related amyloidosis, and degenerative bone disease in chronic renal failure patients.
