Abstract
A dialysis machine may include a main control unit provided with a memory that stores the parameters of a dialysis treatment carried out on a patient and a plurality of slave control units interacting with the main control unit. The slave control unit may provide the control of the dialysis treatment carried out on the patient. A functionality checking unit may include a memory that stores dialysis treatment parameters and interacts with the main control unit to carry out checking of the functionality of the dialysis machine. At predetermined intervals of time, the functionality checking unit may send the dialysis treatment parameters stored in its memory to the main control unit, and the main control unit may compare the dialysis treatment parameters stored in its memory with those sent from the functionality checking unit, and generate an alarm signal if the dialysis treatment parameters do not coincide with each other.
