    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).

    摘要: Provided herein is an apparatus for producing dialysis fluid including a forward osmosis unit used for diluting a dialysis concentrate for producing dialysis fluid. The FO-unit includes a FO-membrane that separates a first side from a second side. The apparatus also comprises a first flow path including a first side and a control arrangement providing priming fluid from a source to the first flow path. A return path fluidly connects an inlet port of the first side to an outlet port of the first side to allow priming fluid from the outlet port to circulate to the inlet port via the return path. The apparatus further comprises a gas collection chamber arranged in the first flow path between the first side and the return path. The gas collection chamber removes gas from first flow path. The present disclosure also relates to a method for priming a FO-unit.

    摘要: A digital communication module for a self-contained medical device communication platform is disclosed herein. In an example, a digital communication module is communicatively coupled to a therapy module of a medical device for relaying medical device data to an electronic medical record (“EMR”) server that is connected to a medical network. The digital communication module is connected to at least one other digital communication module via a wireless proprietary network that is separate from the medical network. The digital communication module determines that the medical device data from the medical device is to be transmitted, via the wireless proprietary network, to one of the other digital communication modules that is connected to the EMR server via the medical network. The other of the digital communication modules receives, and then routes the medical device data to the EMR server via the medical network.
