摘要:
An integrated blood treatment module comprises a blood treatment device (1) having a housing (2) and a first end-cap (4) and a second end-cap (5) closing both ends of the housing (2). A pump hose (17) for a peristaltic pump has a first end (18) that is secured to the housing (2) and a second end (16) that is connected to a blood inlet port (15) of the first end-cap (4) so as to form a loop. A degassing device (30) is connected to the second end-cap (5). The degassing device (30), which, in use, is full of liquid, comprises a hydrophobic membrane through which bubbles and micro-bubbles escape the degassing device.

A device for preparing a sterile liquid includes structure for validating a sterilization treatment applied to the liquid. The validating structure includes structure for calculating, from at least one operating parameter of the device, a parameter representing a sterilizing value for the sterilization treatment, and structure for comparing the calculated parameter to a threshold value corresponding to the sterility of the liquid.
摘要:
A liquid treatment apparatus includes a sensor which is sensitive to a variation in gas pressure and which generates signals indicative of sensed pressures. The apparatus also included a casing divided into a first compartment and a second compartment by a flexible membrane, the first compartment having at least one orifice for the introduction of the liquid, and the second compartment being connectable in a leaktight manner to the pressure sensor. A pump is provided to vary a quantity of gas in the second compartment, and a controller is provided to regulate the pump as a function of variations in pressure generated in the second compartment. The controller is configured to receive signals from the sensor and to cause, through the pump, at least two successive pressure variations, having opposite directions, in the second compartment so as to adjust said position of the membrane between a wall of the casing bounding the first compartment and a wall of the casing bounding the second compartment.
摘要:
A single needle extracorporeal blood circuit for connection to a blood treatment device includes an arterial portion having an arterial reservoir, an end for connection to the needle, an end for connection to the blood treatment device, and a first valve for flow communicating the needle with the arterial reservoir. The blood circuit also includes a venous portion having a venous reservoir, an end for connection to the blood treatment device, an end for connection to the needle, and a second valve for flow communicating the needle with the venous reservoir. Detectors monitor quantities of liquid in the arterial and venous reservoirs so that the first valve is opened in response to the presence of a first predetermined quantity of liquid in the arterial reservoir or a second predetermined quantity of liquid in the venous reservoir. Similarly, the second valve is opened in response to the presence of either a third predetermined quantity of liquid in the arterial reservoir or a fourth predetermined quantity of liquid in the venous reservoir.
摘要:
A method for determining the blood sodium level of a patient whose blood circulates through one compartment of an exchanger separated from a dialysis fluid by a semipermeable membrane, wherein the conductivity of the dialysis fluid of equilibrium with the plasma is determined by: changing in a selected manner the conductivity of the dialysis fluid at inflow the exchanger, measuring the conductivity of the dialysis fluid at outflow from the exchanger, determining a lag time t.sub.L of the change in conductivity of dialysis fluid between inflow to and outflow from the exchanger, and determining an equilibrium conductivity value of the dialysis fluid for which the conductivity at outflow from the exchanger at an instant t is equal to the conductivity at inflow at an instant t-t.sub.L. The invention also relates to an artificial kidney incorporating means for carrying out this method.
摘要:
The invention relates to an artificial kidney for controlling and maintaining parity of the entering and emerging quantities in the dialysis liquid circuit. The artificial kidney comprises a dialysis liquid circuit having on either side of the haemodialyser a sensor capable of measuring the quantity of the circulating liquid and a pump for displacing the said dialysis liquid. A microprocessor controller for comparing the quantities of liquid circulating in the upline sensor with the quantities of liquid circulating in the downline sensor, the controller is used for maintaining the quantities of liquid circulating in the upline sensor equal to the quantities of liquid circulating in the downline sensor, during the same period, by subjecting the operation of the pump for displacing the dialysis liquid to the result of the comparison determined by the controller.
