Frequently Asked Questions
What is the AimaLojic® ReVive® HP System?
The ReVive® HP System is an all-in-one extracorporeal blood purification platform designed for hemoperfusion. It is used to rapidly remove drugs, toxins, and inflammatory mediators (cytokines) directly from the bloodstream in veterinary patients.
What makes AimaLojic® different from other blood purification options?
AimaLojic® provides a fully integrated solution—pump, columns, tubing, and protocols—specifically designed for veterinary use, with fast setup, scalable treatment volumes, and semi-selective adsorption that removes harmful substances while preserving essential blood components.
Is this a dialysis system?
No. The ReVive® HP System is not a dialysis machine. Hemoperfusion differs from dialysis in that it removes substances directly from the blood through adsorption technology, whereas dialysis removes substances across a membrane using diffusion. The ReVive® HP System is designed specifically to deliver hemoperfusion therapy.
What is ToxiClear® used for?
ToxiClear® is designed to adsorb a wide range of drugs and toxins, making it ideal for acute intoxications and poisonings.
What is CytoClear® used for?
CytoClear® is designed to reduce circulating cytokines (inflammatory mediators) and blood dysregulation associated with critical illness.
Are the columns selective?
Yes. AimaLojic® columns use semi-selective adsorption—designed to remove harmful substances while minimizing removal of beneficial proteins, electrolytes, and nutrients.
How long does a column last?
Each column is single-use and designed for a defined treatment duration. Actual runtime depends on clinical goals, flow rate, and patient size.
What size patients can be treated?
The ReVive® HP System is designed to treat a wide range of patient sizes, from small dogs/cats to large-breed and specialty referral cases, using appropriate circuit configurations and flow rates.
Does hemoperfusion require anesthesia?
Anesthesia is not inherently required for hemoperfusion, but sedation or anesthesia may be used depending on patient stability, catheter placement, and clinician judgment.
Is hemoperfusion safe?
When used according to protocol, hemoperfusion has a strong safety profile. Patients are continuously monitored for hemodynamics, anticoagulation status, and circuit performance during treatment.
What are the most common side effects?
Potential risks include hypotension, bleeding related to anticoagulation, and vascular access complications, similar to other extracorporeal therapies. Proper patient selection and monitoring mitigate these risks.
Do we need prior dialysis experience to use AimaLojic?
No. The ReVive® HP System is designed to be intuitive and includes comprehensive training for veterinary teams without prior extracorporeal therapy experience.
What conditions can be treated with AimaLojic hemoperfusion?
Common use cases include:
Drug overdoses (NSAIDs, anticonvulsants, cardiac drugs)
Toxin and poisoning cases
Certain inflammatory or dysregulated disease states
Adjunctive support in severe critical care cases
Final treatment decisions should always be made by the attending clinician.
How quickly does treatment work?
Hemoperfusion begins removing targeted substances as soon as blood flows through the column. Clinically meaningful reductions may occur within 90 minutes, often significantly faster than supportive care alone.
Is hemoperfusion considered first-line or adjunctive therapy?
In many intoxication cases, hemoperfusion is used as early, first-line intervention alongside stabilization. In other cases, it serves as an adjunct to standard supportive care.
What training does AimaLojic® provide?
AimaLojic® provides:
On-site and/or virtual training
Case-based education
Ongoing clinical and technical support 24/7
Is clinical support available during cases?
Yes. AimaLojic® offers case support to assist clinicians with setup, troubleshooting, and clinical questions.
Is hemoperfusion financially viable for veterinary hospitals?
Yes. Many hospitals find hemoperfusion to be financially sustainable through appropriate case selection, improved outcomes, and differentiation as an advanced referral center.
Does AimaLojic® provide ROI or utilization guidance?
Yes. AimaLojic® supports practices with utilization guidance, pricing strategies, and ROI tools to ensure sustainable adoption.
Can this help differentiate our hospital?
Absolutely. Offering hemoperfusion positions a hospital as a leader in advanced critical care and toxicology management.
Is the ReVive® HP System approved for veterinary use?
Yes. The system is cleared and marketed for veterinary applications.
Is this available internationally?
Yes, availability may vary by region. Contact AimaLojic® for country-specific information.
