An extracorporeal blood filtering machine can include a blood circuit, an effluent circuit, and a source fluid circuit and can be controlled by a controller. The extracorporeal blood filtering machine can also include access ports for connecting the source fluid circuit to the blood circuit, as well as blood sensors to detect possible issues with the extracorporeal blood filtering machine. The extracorporeal blood filtering machine can include density sensors and flow sensors that enable it to be more accurate and to operate while being transported. The extracorporeal blood filtering machine can further include a user interface and can display fluid inflow/outflow information. A medical fluid container can automatically empty after being filled. An apparatus for supporting a medical fluid container can include a hanger and an attachment member with the apparatus able to adjust to ensure the medical fluid container remains properly oriented directly under a medical fluid container scale.

Systems and methods for renal insufficiency treatment that include identifying and associating a solution container with a container support in the systems and methods are described herein. The systems and methods may associate an identified solution with an identified container support and verify compatibility of that combination with a selected treatment to reduce the likelihood for errors during setup and use of the systems and methods.

A method and apparatus for evaluating a condition of a water purification system (40, 110) comprising a water purification apparatus (110) arranged to output purified water through an outlet (128) and through at least one sterilizing grade filter (70a, 70b) of a line set (40) fluidly connected to the outlet (128), the method comprises: monitoring a flow rate (S1) correlated with the flow rate of the purified water flowing through the at least one sterilizing grade filter (70a, 70b); monitoring a pressure (S2) correlated with the pressure of the purified water flowing to the at least one sterilizing grade filter (70a, 70b); and evaluating (S3) a condition of the water purification system based on a relationship between the monitored flow rate and the monitored pressure.

The disclosure provides a manual blood or body fluid treatment system comprising first and second reservoirs for holding a batch of blood from a patient and a filter for performing an extracorporeal treatment on blood passing therethrough by removing waste molecules and/or fluid. The first reservoir is constructed to be displaced vertically relative to the second reservoir and vice versa, such that a height difference between the first and second reservoirs causes blood or body fluid to flow between the reservoirs due to gravity.

A method is disclosed for evaluating a condition of an apparatus arranged to output a fluid through an outlet port and through at least one sterilizing grade filter of a line set fluidly connected to the outlet port. The method includes monitoring a flow rate correlated with a flow rate of the fluid flowing through the at least one sterilizing grade filter, monitoring a pressure correlated with a pressure of the fluid flowing to the at least one sterilizing grade filter, and evaluating a condition of the apparatus based on a relationship between the monitored flow rate and the monitored pressure.

A container arrangement for an extracorporeal blood treatment machine serves as a replacement for an insert container designed with a predetermined topology for supplying an alkalizing solution. The container arrangement includes a container for holding an alkalizing dry substance. The container has a container intake, a container drain, and an adapter. The adapter has an inflow connection section for coupling and fluidic connection to an inflow of an insert container holder of the extracorporeal blood treatment machine and an outflow connection section for coupling to an outflow of the insert container holder of the extracorporeal blood treatment machine. A solvent flow path can be formed from the inflow connection section of the adapter, via the container intake, through the container, and to the container drain.

A blood oxygenation device includes an oxygen transport liquid for delivering oxygen, a blood distributor for diverting a single stream of blood into a plurality of blood streams, an oxygen transport liquid distributor for diverting a single stream of said oxygen transport liquid into a second plurality of oxygen transport liquid streams, a third plurality of blood droplet generators for generating blood droplets within said oxygen transport liquid, a fourth plurality of blood oxygenation chambers wherein oxygen diffuses from said oxygen transport liquid into blood, and a blood aggregator for combining blood from the fourth plurality of said blood oxygen transport liquids.

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