Secure artificial intelligence enabled wearable medical sensor platforms

A secure artificial intelligence (AI) enabled wearable medical sensor platform is used for adaptive operation according to features and techniques described herein. Operational parameters are modified based on data inputs thereto that provide feedback to the AI systems of the wearable sensor platform. The described technology can facilitate adaptive optimizations provided by AI machine learning algorithms in a manner that can beneficially assist in the monitoring and treatment of a patient. For example, the system described herein may be used for the continuous monitoring of the physiological parameters and health of a patient's vascular access point (for example, the fistula) and may provide, among other things, early warnings of possible infection at the vascular access location.

Fluid line autoconnect apparatus and methods for medical treatment system

A medical infusion fluid handling system, such as an automated peritoneal dialysis system, may be arranged to de-cap and connect one or more lines (such as solution lines) with one or more spikes or other connection ports on a fluid handling cassette. This feature may reduce a likelihood of contamination since no human interaction is required to de-cap and connect the one or more lines and the one or more spikes. For example, the automated peritoneal dialysis system may include a carriage arranged to receive the one or more lines each having a connector end and a cap. The carriage may move along a first direction so as to move the connector ends of the one or more lines along the first direction, and a cap stripper may be arranged to engage with the caps on the one or more lines on the carriage. The cap stripper may move in a second direction transverse to the first direction, as well as to move with the carriage along the first direction.

PERITONEAL DIAYLSIS SYSTEM AND CASSETTES THEREFOR

A peritoneal dialysis machine that includes a preparator as well as a cycler to form the peritoneal dialysis system. The system delivers purified water into one or more containers with different powders to create a concentrate and then moves this concentrate to a mixing bag to create the peritoneal dialysis fluid (PDF). The cycler then delivers fresh PDF to the patient and removes waste fluid via the drain outlet. A volumetric approach controls the hydraulic flow paths that introduce purified water to the powder concentrates, provide mixing of the concentrate to form the PDF and delivery of the freshly made PDF to the patient. Different configurations of hydraulic flow/pressure generators are provided in the fluid paths to provide optimization of the flow of water through the fluid system to create the correct powder concentrates and subsequent peritoneal dialysis fluid for cycling, for example being provided in a disposable cassette.
