Relavo

Relavo is a Baltimore-based medical device company dedicated to enhancing the safety and accessibility of home dialysis for patients with kidney failure. Founded by Johns Hopkins undergraduates, Relavo focuses on innovative infection-prevention technologies for peritoneal dialysis (PD). Their flagship product, PeritoneX, is a low-cost, disposable connection device designed to disinfect PD connection points, significantly reducing the risk of infection, which is a major barrier to the wider adoption of home dialysis. The company aims to enrich the lives of kidney failure patients by making home dialysis safer. Relavo has received notable recognition and funding, including a $500,000 KidneyX prize and a $1,000,000 National Science Foundation Small Business Innovation Research grant. These awards highlight Relavo's commitment to innovation in the home dialysis sector. With a small team and a focus on environmentally responsible practices, Relavo is positioned to support the growing demand for home-based kidney failure treatments.
