Abstract
Flow rate of a blood delivery pump of a blood treatment apparatus is determined and adjusted by connecting a fluid filled container with an extracorporeal blood line of the blood treatment apparatus, performing a priming step to prime the extracorporeal blood line by driving the blood delivery pump at a predetermined theoretical delivery rate to deliver fluid from the filled container into the extracorporeal blood line, determining the loss of fluid of the fluid filled container due to delivery of fluid into the extracorporeal blood line during priming, and determining a correction factor by comparison of a value for an amount of fluid delivered under the theoretical delivery rate with a value for the amount of fluid actually delivered.
