Abstract:
A haemodialysis device having an emergency activating function is provided. In order to avoid critical drops in blood pressure during a dialysis treatment, the emergency activating function makes it possible for the operating staff to initiate with a single control function a blood pressure measurement and a delivery of substance into the patient's blood in the event of a hypotensive episode and at the same time to have the introduction of these measures by the haemodialyser confirmed clearly through a display having an outward appearance different from that displayed during normal operations. In addition, further automatically introduced process steps can be provided. The emergency activating function speeds up the implementation of the measures to be introduced and, at the same time prevents incorrect operation and makes it possible for the operating staff to attend directly to the patient.
Abstract:
A device and method for detecting complications during an extracorporeal blood treatment are provided. During the dialysis treatment, the dialysance or clearance may be continuously determined at successive points in time based on a measured change in a physical or chemical characteristic quantity of the dialysis liquid, for example, the ion concentration of the dialysis liquid. In the event a significant change in the dialysance or clearance is established, the determination of the recirculation may be effected based on a measured change in a physical or chemical characteristic quantity of the blood. When both a significant change in the determined dialysance as well as in the recirculation occurs, a complication may be assumed with regard to a bad vessel access. Alternatively, a complication may be assumed with regard to the dialyzer. The present invention may allow the continuous monitoring during the dialysis treatment to ensue solely on the basis of the change in the measured dialysate-side characteristic quantities.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a haemodialysis -device. In order to avoid critical drops in blood pressure during a dialysis treatment, the invention provides an emergency activating means (58) which makes it possible for the operating staff to initiate with a single control function a blood pressure measurement and a delivery of substance into the patient's blood in the event of a hypotensive episode and at the same time to have the introduction of these measures by the haemodialyser confirmed clearly. In addition, further automatically introduced process steps can be provided. The invention speeds up the implementation of the measures to be introduced, at the same time prevents incorrect operation and makes it possible for the operating staff to attend directly to the patient..
Abstract:
A blood treatment unit has a blood treatment device which is part of an extracorporeal blood circulatory system. The unit has a control unit and a display and input unit having a touch screen. In order to simplify the operation of the blood treatment unit using the touch screen, the control unit and the display and input unit are suitable for representing various mode means on the touch screen which correspond to the various time modes of the blood treatment. The control unit automatically instigates the beginning of the following time mode at the end of at least one time mode, this being indicated by a change in the representation of the selected mode means on the touch screen. It is especially advantageous to use sensors through whose measured values the control unit identifies the end of one time mode and the beginning of the subsequent time mode.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a medical treatment system, which has at least one device for carrying out a medical treatment, in particular dialysis treatment and a device for providing patient-related data. The patient-related data is stored by the server and the data can be displayed in a patient mode on a screen. The dialysis system has various security features, which prevent an erroneous input and the erroneous display of patient-related data in the patient mode on the screen.
Abstract:
The invention relates to blood treatment equipment comprising a blood treatment device which is part of an extracorporeal blood circulatory system. The equipment comprises a control unit (30) as well as a display and input unit (32) having a touch screen (33). In order to simplify the operation of the blood treatment equipment using the touch screen, the control unit (30) and the display and input unit (32) are suitable for representing various mode means on the touch screen (33) which correspond to the various time modes of the blood treatment. According to the invention, the control unit automatically instigates the beginning of the following time mode at the end of at least one time mode, this being indicated by a change in the representation of the selected mode means on the touch screen. It is especially advantageous to use sensors (9, 12) through whose measured values the control unit (30) identifies the end of one time mode and the beginning of the subsequent time mode.
