Coming soon to American, but you will have to still pay the ‘Obamacare’ tax on your machine!
Get his plans. We may need this device after Obamacare kicks in.
His initiative is very admirable.
How is that socialized medicine working?
Genius.
Now that’s some serious self-reliance. Inspiring.
Probably a very smart idea. I doubt that he would have passed the “economic benefit analysis” test and would have been relegated to the dumpster along with the aborted babies.
Now there is a guy I’d like to meet
So, under 0bamaCare, will this become the new standard of care, or would he be prosecuted for defying the Death Panel?
BFL
I cry foul!
Items made in China seldom work as intended and if they do they certainly do not last 13 years.
Not only did he build a machine but hopefully, he also built some kind of shunt that allows him to hookup to the machine easily.
If he just uses IVs to connect to his arteries and veins, then it must hurt like hell. Veins are easy to get to, arteries, different story.
When I was in the hospital, my roommate’s doctor need blood gas or something from his arteries and I remember seeing the cut down kit, it did not look fun although they at least gave him pain killers and a local dose of Novacane. I asked my Doctor why they couldn’t just use a long needle? Since I was just a kid he blew me off. I wonder if they still do that.
Back to the Chinese guy, that is incredible. I wonder what he uses to filter the waste products from the good stuff?
China? They have socialized medicine... nice to see how well it’s working...
A smart guy built this device. An American company could do the same but it would cost $100,000,000 to get the FDA approval to sell it. And they would pay the new Obama care medical device tax on every unit.
No, this cannot happen in the USA in 2013. Americans cannot make this product. Just plain cannot be done. And what an indictment is that on our government.
like doing dental work on yourself in the UK
when government healthcare comes to America, those 3D printers might come in handy
Something as simple as taking a daily dose of baking soda has been shown to greatly reduce the need for kidney dialysis. If one tries this it would be best to use aluminum free baking soda. I get good quality baking soda for baking on vitacost.com.
Damn, humans are innovative!

As long as his solutions are mixed properly, he’s good to go. However, there’s a high risk of infection.
