Abstract
A peritoneal dialysis system and method includes a control unit configured to enable a pressurization device to pressurize a pressure cavity to a pressure; cause a fluid valve to be opened when the pressure reaches a desired pressure to allow fluid communication with a flexible container located within the pressure cavity; cause a pressure within the pressure cavity to be measured after the fluid valve is opened; and determine that the flexible container is full of fluid or empty of fluid if the pressure within the pressure cavity after the fluid valve is opened becomes or remains at least substantially constant.
