Price includes the pump, heater/console and tray. This light weight home dialysis unit powers and heats up, appears to respond to its controls as it should and has no physical damage. It comes with an inspection warranty which allows the buyer to confirm their purchase is as presented and/or bio-medically acceptable after inspection. A free factory manual for it in PDF format is available from the manufacturer's website which can be found by Google searching FRESENIUS Newton IQ Cycler.
According to the manual, missing from this array are consumable filters, fluid lines and bags (P/N FSN5087208), a stand with poles and line hooks and two data cards (P/N 470210 and 470211). Use of the cards is something that is discussed in the manual is appears to be somewhat optional. A drainage pump is also required, though no pump or part number is identified by the manufacturer. This part of the array is called the Pump to Drain and appears to consist of two solenoid valves which are plugged into the main unit to measure and control outflow and a peristaltic pump.
The Fresenius Newton IQ uses a standard North American electrical outlet. The machine requires the patient or nurse to enter the patient’s entire prescription into the cycler for the first time. This machine remains programmed for future use, until the prescription is changed and this then needs to be re-entered. A patient may manually enter numbers such as number of fills, dwell time and drain time and other information such as date and time. After the this data entered the Newton IQ will ask about information such as if the PD solution bags need to be pre-warmed or if the patient would prefer the instructions in English, Spanish or French.
