The alfapump® system is not currently approved in the United States or Canada. In the United States and Canada, the alfapump® system is currently under clinical investigation (POSEIDON Study) and is being studied in adult patients with refractory or recurrent ascites due to cirrhosis. For more information regarding the POSEIDON clinical study see www.poseidonstudy.com.
The DSR therapy is still in development and it should be noted that any statements regarding safety and efficacy arise from ongoing pre-clinical and clinical investigations which have yet to be completed.
The DSR therapy is not currently approved for clinical research in the United States or Canada. There is no link between the DSR therapy and ongoing investigations with the alfapump® system in Europe.

The alfapump® fait toujours l’objet d’une étude clinique aux États-Unis et au Canada. Par conséquent, aucun énoncé concernant la sécurité et l’efficacité ne s’applique dans ces territoires.
Le traitement DSR est encore en développement et il convient de noter que toute déclaration concernant la sécurité et l’efficacité découle d’investigations précliniques et cliniques en cours qui n’ont pas encore été complétées.
Il n’y a pas de lien entre le traitement DSR et les investigations en cours avec le système alfapump® en Europe, aux États-Unis et au Canada.
De alfapump® is nog steeds in klinisch onderzoek in de VS en Canada en daarom zijn alle uitspraken met betrekking tot veiligheid en werkzaamheid niet van toepassing in deze gebieden.
De DSR-therapie is nog in ontwikkeling en het moet worden opgemerkt dat alle uitspraken met betrekking tot veiligheid en werkzaamheid voortkomen uit lopend preklinisch en klinisch onderzoek dat nog moet worden voltooid.
Er is geen verband tussen de DSR-therapie en lopende onderzoeken met het alfapump® systeem in Europa, de VS en Canada.
