The invention relates to a system for carrying out dialysis treatment with a dialysis machine, a control unit and a sensor, the sensor being signal-connected to the control unit, and the control unit being designed to measure a patient's blood sugar level or interstitial glucose value during dialysis treatment using the sensor, to record a curve over time of the blood sugar level or interstitial glucose values on the basis of the measured values, and to adapt one or more treatment parameters of the dialysis machine automatically taking the curve into account, or to output an instruction for adaptation of a treatment parameter by a user or for another action by a user.

Dialysis system with continuous glucose monitoring

The invention relates to an apparatus for preparing a peritoneal dialysis solution at the point of use comprising a disposable having a solution bag and associated filling lines and patient lines; a storage unit for liquid connected to the filling line; a control unit; and actuators for regulating a flow from the storage unit to the disposable, wherein the apparatus furthermore comprises a scale at which the solution bag of the disposable is arranged, with the control unit being configured to initiate a filling of the solution bag with liquid from the storage unit using the actuators and to determine the quantity of the liquid that has flowed into the solution bag using the scale.

Apparatus and method for preparing a peritoneal dialysis solution

A method and an apparatus are provided for the automatic, weight-dependent filling of a hose system, in particular for a gravimetric cycler for peritoneal dialysis, having only one scale. The hose system includes at least three line sections for connection to at least one drainage bag, to at least one solution bag and to a patient. The method includes opening at least one bag valve and at least drainage: valve, and deriving a first opening duration of the valves from a weight of the solution bag measured by means of the scale and from at least one characteristic.

Apparatus and method for the automatic, weight-dependent filling of a hose system

The present invention relates to an apparatus for providing a dialysis solution and preferably a peritoneal dialysis solution comprising a reception container that can accommodate a solution volume that is intended for at least two treatments, wherein the apparatus has a plurality of extraction ports for extracting the dialysis solution from the reception container.

Apparatus containing dialysis solution or dialysis solution concentrate

The present invention relates to a dialysis machine, in particular to a peritoneal dialysis machine, having a device for preparing dialysis solution, wherein the device has an RO system equipped with a filter for the provision of RO water and has a mixing device that is configured to mix a dialysis concentrate with the RO water or with a solution containing RO water; wherein a control device is provided that is configured to operate the RO system continuously; and wherein a storage container is provided that is connected downstream of the RO system and that is configured to store the water generated in the RO system.

Dialysis machine

The present invention relates to an apparatus for transporting a dialysis solution, wherein the apparatus has a flexible inner bag for receiving the dialysis solution that is arranged in a rigid outer packaging that is preferably parallelepiped-shaped.

Apparatus containing a dialysis solution

A dialysis machine, in particular a peritoneal dialysis machine, has a heating device for heating a container containing a dialysis solution, in particular a peritoneal dialysis solution. The heating device is configured such that the heating of the dialysis solution by the heating device takes place non-uniformly at points.

Dialysis machine and arrangement and method for heating a dialysis solution

The invention relates to a method of loading a medical device, in particular to a dialysis device, and preferably a peritoneal dialysis device, which comprises a device control and a user interface, wherein at least one fluid-filled container is connected to a corresponding interface of the device, wherein at least one property of the container is checked by the device before or during its connection and the measured value is compared with least one desired value stored in the device control.

Method of loading a medical device

The disclosure relates to new methods for calibrating or adjusting a bioimpedance measuring device. Furthermore, the present disclosure relates to a medical set or system, a medical measuring standard, a method for testing a bioimpedance measuring device, and a bioimpedance measuring device.

Method for calibrating a bioimpedance measuring device, and medical devices

The present invention relates to an apparatus and to a method for filling a solution bag for dialysis with a liquid, wherein the apparatus comprises a needle for introduction into a filling line or filling opening of the bag, wherein the needle is a double wall needle having a preferably thermally conductive outer wall and having an inner wall, with a thermal insulation being present between the outer wall and the inner wall; and with a heating element being provided that is configured to heat the outer side of the outer wall to a temperature above the temperature of the inner side of the inner wall.

Apparatus and method for filling solution bags for dialysis

The present invention relates to an apparatus for performing peritoneal dialysis, the apparatus comprising means for delivering dialysis fluid to the peritoneal cavity of a patient, a measurement device for measuring the fluid pressure of the delivered dialysis fluid and/or the fluid pressure in the peritoneal cavity, i.e. the intraperitoneal pressure and/or any pressure related thereto, and a control unit operably connected to said means and the measurement device, wherein the control unit is configured to effect an inflow or outflow phase encompassing a series of fill-and-measurement or drain-and-measurement steps, each step comprising delivering a predetermined quantity of dialysis fluid to the peritoneal cavity or draining a predetermined quantity of dialysis fluid from the peritoneal cavity and subsequently measuring and recording a pressure value.

Apparatus for performing peritoneal dialysis

The present invention relates to a magazine having a plurality of solution bags for dialysis received therein, wherein the plurality of solution bags are identical; wherein the plurality of solution bags are fixed in a stationary manner in an identical orientation at different, but identically designed holding positions of the magazine; and wherein the holding positions are configured such that the solution bags can be removed from the magazine. The invention furthermore relates to a method of filling the solution bags.

Magazine having solution bags for dialysis and method for filling same

The present invention relates to a method for calculating or approximating a value representing the relative blood volume (RBV) at a certain point of time, or a value representing the refilling volume of a patient that may be observed or found during or due to a blood treatment of the patient, the method involving considering one or more calculated or measured value(s) reflecting an overhydration level of the patient or an approximation thereof. It relates further to an apparatus and a device for carrying out the present invention, a blood treatment device, digital storage means, a computer program product, and a computer program.
