    摘要: A number of improvements relating to methods and apparatuses for kidney dialysis are disclosed. These include checking of dialysate bypass status using flow measurement; using a flow sensor to confirm the absence of ultrafiltration during bypass; automatic testing of ultrafiltration function by removal of a discrete volume from a portion of the dialysate flow path coupled with a pressure test of that part of the flow path; using a touch screen user interface; bar graph profile programming of ultrafiltration, sodium, and bicarbonate parameters; using a RAM card to upload treatment instructions to, and to download treatment data from, the machine; automatic setting of proportioning mode (acetate or bicarbonate) based on connections of concentrate lines; predicting dialysate conductivity values based on brand and formulation of concentrates; minimizing no-flow dead time between dialysate pulses; initiating operation in a timed mode from a machine power-off condition; preserving machine mode during machine power-fail condition; calibration scheduling and reminding; automatic level adjusting; and blood leak flow rate detecting.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for monitoring operation of a valve is disclosed in which a signal, such as an alternating current electrical signal, is propagated through a fluid path defined by the valve. The occlusion of the fluid path is indicated by monitoring the propagation of the signal. The system is highly immune to electrical noise and to variations in fluid conductivity. The system is also well adapted for monitoring operation of valves having a plurality of ports. In installations employing a plurality of valves, as plurality of valve monitors can be used without mutual interference.
