Theme: Advantages
Statement Dr. Emanuele Gatti:

Many clinical studies have already proven that what we call online
hemodiafiltration is a unique therapy provided by Fresenius Medical Care, that is
from the quality point of view the best treatment for the patients. That means
longer life expectancy and less complications during the treatment. What we offer
now is this treatment for the same cost to the payer as the previous treatment, that
has of course less advantages to patients and to the payers.

Theme: Development of the new 5008
Statement Dr. Emanuele Gatti:

We were founded as an innovative company, because our business model
was the first one as a vertically integrated company. We are really vertically
integrated in that our employees not only have to do with doctors, nurses
and dialysis patients. But they are also responsible for the quality of
treatments of these dialysis patients in their daily work. And we treat in our
centers more than 130,000 patients worldwide.

Theme: Explanation of the new 5008
Statement Dr. Emanuele Gatti:

The device is a vital support to dialysis. It means a treatment that cleans the blood
of the patients. It cleans blood via a so-called artificial kidney. And the machine
supervises the complete treatment, taking care of allowing the blood to circulate
into the kidney, controlling the temperature and the dialysis fluid and generating all
the necessary alarms for the safety of the patients.

Theme: Key improvements
Statement Dr. Günter Seyffart:

The key improvement for me is that hemodialysis and hemofiltration, which are done
at the same time because this provides the best stimulation of the kidneys, can now
be performed together, online as we say, and automatically without using any
additional disposables.
