Parabiotic dialysis systems and techniques

A parabiotic dialysis system, the system comprising:

• a device having a first side and a second side, the device including a semipermeable membrane between the first side and the second side that is structurally configured for permitting passage of one or more molecules therethrough;
• a first extracorporeal circuit including one or more first fluid connectors for connecting the first side of the device to the vascular system of a first animal;
• a second extracorporeal circuit including one or more second fluid connectors for connecting the second side of the device to the vascular system of a second animal;
• a first pump in fluid communication with at least one of the first and second extracorporeal circuits;
• a driver mechanically coupled to the first pump, the driver configured to drive the first pump using energy from an energy source;
• and
• a biometric verification system configured to identify one or more of the first animal and the second animal to determine a permission for use of the system.

A method for parabiotic dialysis, the method comprising:

• using a biometric verification system to identify one or more of a first animal and a second animal to determine a permission for use of a parabiotic dialysis system;
• upon receipt of permission from the biometric verification system, moving blood of the first animal through a first extracorporeal circuit including a first fluid connector that connects a first side of a device to the vascular system of the first animal, the device including a semipermeable membrane structurally configured for permitting passage of one or more molecules therethrough;
• and
• upon receipt of permission from the biometric verification system, moving the one or more molecules through the device to a second extracorporeal circuit including a second fluid connector that connects a second side of the device to the vascular system of the second animal.

A method for parabiotic dialysis, the method comprising:

• connecting a first side of a device to the vascular system of a first animal to form a first extracorporeal circuit, the device including a semipermeable membrane structurally configured for permitting passage of one or more molecules therethrough;
• connecting a second side of the device to the vascular system of a second animal to form a second extracorporeal circuit;
• using a biometric verification system to identify and determine a permission for use for each of the first animal and the second animal;
• and
• when it is determined by the biometric verification system that there is permission for use for each of the first animal and the second animal, moving blood of the first animal through the first extracorporeal circuit thereby moving the one or more molecules from the blood of the first animal through the semipermeable membrane to the second extracorporeal circuit.
