    摘要: A fluid warming device for an extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus, comprises: an outlet temperature sensor (31) operatively active at an outlet (22) of a fluid warming path (23) to detect a measured outlet temperature (To) of a fluid leaving the fluid warming device (18); an electronic control unit (29) operatively connected to the outlet temperature sensor (31). The electronic control unit (29) is configured to perform the following procedure: receiving, from the outlet temperature sensor (31) a signal correlated to a measured outlet temperature (To); correcting the measured outlet temperature (To) through a correction model to obtain an actual fluid outlet temperature (Tout); adjusting a heating power (Ph) of heating elements to keep the actual fluid outlet temperature (Tout) at a set reference temperature value (Tset). The correction model is an empirical model of a measurement error (E) derived from a plurality of experimental data sets, the measurement error (E) being a difference between the measured outlet temperature (To) and the actual fluid outlet temperature (Tout).

    摘要: Blood treatment apparatus and methods of using the same are described herein that include two or more intermediate containers located between a treatment solution source and a port through which the treatment solution is to be delivered with the blood treatment apparatus. The weight of the intermediate containers is measured and used to control the refilling and emptying of treatment solution in the intermediate containers.

    摘要: An extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus, comprises: at least a pressure sensor (24,25) located in a respective measurement site on an extracorporeal blood circuit (6, 7); an electronic control unit (23) operatively connected at least to the pressure sensor (24, 25). The electronic control unit (23) is configured to perform at least the following procedure: receiving from the pressure sensor (24, 25) a signal correlated to a measured blood pressure (P1measured, P2measured) in the measurement site; correcting the blood measured pressure (P1measured, P2measured) through a mathematical correction model to obtain a blood actual pressure (Pinlet, Poutlet) in a reference site other than the measurement site. Between the reference site and the measurement site, a circuit section and, optionally, at least one additional device (18, 27, 28) is/are positioned. The mathematical correction model is a model of a pressure drop in the circuit section and, optionally, in the additional device (18, 27, 28).
