The company plans to begin shipping the updated platform during the second quarter of 2026. Healthcare providers using the Tablo system will be able to access upgraded cybersecurity features.

The platform is cleared for use from hospital to home settings, is deployed in more than 1,000 healthcare facilities in the US and integrates water purification with on-demand dialysate production.

It supports connectivity with electronic medical record (EHR) systems and Outset Medical’s data analytics platform.

Outset Medical chair and CEO Leslie Trigg said: “We are proud to be the first dialysis company to clear the high standard for cybersecurity set by the FDA, a milestone that reflects Outset’s ongoing commitment to innovation, patient safety and data stewardship.

“Our next-generation platform is designed to protect and amplify the clinical, financial and operational value delivered to our customers, and extend Outset’s technology lead.”

In April 2024, Outset Medical entered a multi-year agreement with US Renal Care to provide patients and caregivers access to home dialysis with the Tablo system.
