NAICS Code 621492-01 Description (8-Digit)

Artificial Kidney Centers are medical facilities that specialize in providing dialysis treatment to patients with kidney failure. This treatment involves the use of an artificial kidney machine to filter waste and excess fluids from the blood, a process that the kidneys would normally perform. Artificial Kidney Centers offer a range of dialysis treatments, including hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, and provide personalized care to each patient based on their individual needs.

History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 621492-01 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The history of Artificial Kidney Centers dates back to the 1940s when Dr. Willem Kolff developed the first dialysis machine. The first successful dialysis treatment was performed in 1945 on a patient suffering from acute renal failure. In the 1960s, the first outpatient dialysis center was established in Seattle, Washington. The 1970s saw the introduction of the first portable dialysis machine, which allowed patients to receive treatment at home. In the 1980s, the use of synthetic membranes in dialysis machines improved the efficiency of the treatment. In recent years, there have been advancements in the development of wearable artificial kidneys, which could provide patients with greater mobility and flexibility in their treatment. In the United States, the first dialysis center was established in 1962 in Seattle, Washington. The 1972 Medicare End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Program provided coverage for dialysis treatment for all eligible patients, which led to a significant increase in the number of dialysis centers across the country. In the 1980s, the introduction of the Prospective Payment System (PPS) for dialysis treatment led to a shift towards outpatient care. In the 1990s, the use of erythropoietin to treat anemia in dialysis patients became widespread. In recent years, there has been a focus on improving the quality of care for dialysis patients, with initiatives such as the Dialysis Facility Compare website, which allows patients to compare the quality of care provided by different dialysis centers.
