Blood leakage during hemodialysis treatment can lead to serious complications and even death. Dialysis machines are designed to remove toxins and excess fluids from the blood, but if blood leaks from the vascular access site, the patient?s health may be at risk. To prevent such incidents, blood leak detectors have been introduced in dialysis machines that can detect the presence of blood in the circuit and alert the healthcare provider.
