    摘要: The present disclosure generally relates to a device (200) for detecting infection in a patient (102) undergoing peritoneal dialysis. The device (200) comprises: a housing module (202) removably coupleable to a fluidic element (204) configured for receiving waste dialysate fluid (130) from the patient (102); a set of lighting elements (206) disposed on the housing module (202) and configured for emitting light into the fluidic element (204); a set of optical sensors (208) disposed on the housing module (202) and configured for measuring optical properties of the light that has interacted with the waste dialysate fluid (130) in the fluidic element (204); and a control module configured for measuring turbidity of the waste dialysate fluid (130) based on the optical properties, wherein the dialysate turbidity is indicative of infection in the patient (102) if the dialysate turbidity and historical dialysate turbidity of the patient (102) satisfy a set of predefined conditions.

    摘要: The present disclosure generally relates to a device for analysing spent peritoneal dialysate from a peritoneal dialysis apparatus. The device comprises: a set of housings attachable to the peritoneal dialysis apparatus; a set of test components disposed in the housings, each test component and comprising one or more reagents for detecting one or more substances; and a set of fluidic conduits connected to the housings for communicating the dialysate from the peritoneal dialysis apparatus to the housings, wherein the test components are arranged for the reagents to react with the dialysate communicated to the housings and thereby detect the substances in the dialysate.
