Abstract
Systems and methods for managing the pH of a dialysate fluid during hemodialysis therapy. The systems and methods adjust dialysate pH and buffer concentration to generate a predetermined total bicarbonate buffer concentration in a dialysate entering a dialyzer. The systems and methods generate a pH-modifying fluid and selectively add the pH modifying fluid to the dialysate in order to accurately control the total bicarbonate buffer concentration in the dialysate entering the dialyzer.
