Nuwellis (NASDAQ: NUWE) has expanded its Aquadex SmartFlow® therapy to two additional pediatric centers in the Southeastern United States, bringing the total to 47 pediatric centers using their fluid management solution. The Aquadex system is designed for controlled fluid removal in patients weighing 20 kg and above, offering a nurse-managed, bedside-compatible therapy for children facing fluid overload. This expansion represents growing recognition of early, precise fluid management as crucial for better outcomes in pediatric care. The technology provides care teams with a gentle approach to managing fluid overload in critically ill children, where the margin for error is particularly narrow.

Nuwellis (Nasdaq: NUWE) has secured U.S. Patent No. 12,280,007 for an innovative self-emptying fluid bag design that enhances clinical workflow efficiency.

The technology aims to reduce manual intervention requirements while preserving system accuracy in treating fluid overload in critically ill patients. While not planned for immediate implementation, the design could be incorporated into future Aquadex SmartFlow system updates, including the Vivian pediatric-focused CRRT device under development.

The patent received a 224-day extension to its standard term from the USPTO, representing one of several initiatives by Nuwellis to expand its intellectual property portfolio and advance fluid management innovation.
