Abstract
A system for performing a peritoneal dialysis therapy includes at least one dialysis fluid pump, and a control unit operable with the at least one dialysis fluid pump to perform a plurality of peritoneal dialysis cycles, the cycles including a fill phase, a dwell phase and a drain phase. The control unit configured to (i) store a previously entered continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis ('CCPD') therapy having a total prescribed fresh dialysate fill volume delivered over n cycles, the cycles performed over a total therapy duration, and (ii) automatically convert the CCPD therapy into a tidal peritoneal dialysis therapy having n+1 cycles, less a number of cycles already completed during the CCPD therapy, using the total prescribed fresh dialysis fill volume, and maintaining the total therapy duration.
