Abstract
The invention relates to devices, systems, and methods for measuring dialysis adequacy in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis treatment. The devices, systems, and methods use one or more flow sensors and one or more solute sensors to measure the concentration of a uremic solute and volume of the peritoneal dialysate removed from the patient, and to calculate the dialysis adequacy based on the measured peritoneal dialysate concentration and volume.
