• A care partner must be available for training on SC+ and to be present in the home during all home hemodialysis sessions
• Participants should be either receiving regular, facility-based hemodialysis therapy for at least 90 days, or in the case of peritoneal patients transitioning to hemodialysis, at least 90 days, or performing home dialysis (with any frequency) for at least 90 days and willing to return to facility for purpose of study, and should be clinically stable and deemed suitable for home dialysis in the opinion of the principal investigator

• Home environment is adequate to ensure that appropriate electrical connections and water supply necessary for the use and storage of the device as assessed by Quanta prior to subject C1 visit. Also ensure that cellular signal and/or WIFI capacity is adequate.
• Participant or care partner are capable of understanding the nature of procedures and requirements of the study protocol and of home-based hemodialysis, and are willing and capable of complying with protocol and returning to treatment center as stated in protocol
• Participant or care partner are capable of being trained to use the machine and troubleshoot should an alarm situation occur

• Lack an ability for self-care
• Are non-adherent to their current dialysis treatments
• Experience intra-dialytic hypotension defined as a decrease in systolic blood pressure of greater than or equal to 20 mmHg or a decrease in mean arterial pressure of greater than or equal to 10 mmHg provided that the decrease is associated with clinical events (symptoms) and the need for an intervention (ultrafiltration turned off, bolus of fluid) in 3 of 5 previous treatments
