Abstract
An Emergency-Disengagement Device (EDD) comprises three holders (11), into which two blood tubes (21) are inserted. When immediate evaluation is required, patients undergoing hemodialysis can turn the trigger (20) to release sliding blocks (15) (16) in the three holders to choke off and sever the two blood tubes (21), at which time the EDD disassembles to three individual pieces. After the EDD disassembles, patients can rapidly and safely disengage from the hemodialysis machines to which they are connected, without any bleeding.
