The system (1) further comprises a line set (40) connected to the purified water outlet connector (128) at a water line connector (68) of the line set (40), wherein the line set (40) includes at least one sterile sterilizing grade filter (70a, 70b) arranged to filter the purified water into sterile purified water.

The present invention concerns a package comprising an acidic citrate containing concentrate, an acidic citrate containing concentrate (or acidic citrate containing solution), and a system wherein the acidic citrate containing concentrate is included for providing a dialysis treatment. The acidic citrate containing concentrate contains citric acid and citrate in a molar ratio of 75:25 to 85:15, and has a pH of between 2 and 3.

The present invention concerns a dialysis acid precursor composition for use during preparation of a dialysis acid concentrate solution and for mixing with water, a sodium containing concentrate, and a bicarbonate containing concentrate into a ready-for-use dialysis solution. Said dialysis acid precursor composition consists of powder components comprising glucose, at least one dry acid and at least one calcium salt, and optionally potassium salt, and magnesium salt. According to the invention said glucose and said at least one calcium salt, are present as anhydrous components in said dialysis acid precursor composition.

An indirect drain flush system incorporating hot water to facilitate the transport of kidney dialysis effluent to wastewater treatment facilities is provided. Heated water is discharged into a waste line through an air gap, and the heated water increases the molecular interchange of fatty substances in the dialysis effluent, decreasing the viscosity of those fatty substances and preventing them from coagulating or crystalizing on pipes and drains. An air admittance valve may prevent negative pressure from building up within the system.

The invention relates to a system comprising a plurality of medical devices, preferably dialysis devices, which are connected to a common supply system, wherein the system has an evaluation unit which is connected to all devices of the system and which is configured such that values set in the different devices and/or predefined values and/or measured values, which are determined by means of at least one sensor and which relate to corresponding parameters, are compared with at least one expected value for recognizing errors of the supply system and/or of an individual device.

This dialysis-fluid supply system, which mixes a diluent and at least two drugs to generate a dialysis fluid, and outputs said dialysis fluid, is provided with: two tanks which mix the drugs and the diluent to generate the dialysis fluid, and store said dialysis fluid; a water supply device and a drug supply device which supply the diluent and the drugs to each of the tanks; mechanisms for outputting, to a dialysis device, the dialysis fluid stored in each of the tanks; and a control unit for controlling the driving of these. During output of the dialysis fluid from at least one of the tanks, the control unit sequentially switches the supply destination tank for the drugs and the diluent, and the dialysis-fluid output source tank, between the two tanks in order to generate the dialysis fluid in the other tank.

This dialysis-fluid supply system, which mixes a diluent and at least two drugs to generate a dialysis fluid, and outputs said dialysis fluid, is provided with: a mixing tank which mixes the drugs and the diluent to generate the dialysis fluid; a storage tank which stores and outputs the dialysis fluid generated by the mixing tank; a transport mechanism for transporting, to the storage tank, the dialysis fluid generated by the mixing tank; an output mechanism for outputting, to a dialysis device, the dialysis fluid stored in the storage tank; and a control unit for controlling the driving of the transport mechanism and the output mechanism.

The invention relates to a method and to a device for supplying a dialysis device with dialysate, and to a dialysis device comprising a device for supplying the dialysis device with dialysate. For producing dialysate, a container 13 filled with a pulverulent dialysate concentrate K is provided, the amount of dialysate concentrate in the container being set in such a way that an amount of dialysate sufficient for a specified number of dialysis treatments can be produced using the dialysate concentrate. The method according to the invention and the device according to the invention make it possible to align the amount K2 of concentrate in the container 13 and the planned consumption amount, which is dependent on the prescription from the doctor and the treatment parameters established by the machine. After the individual dialysis treatments have been carried out, it is continuously monitored whether the amount of concentrate is sufficient. It may be monitored whether the amount of concentrate is sufficient for the following treatment or for all treatments still to be carried out. If it is not sufficient, an alarm signal is generated. Otherwise, a control signal for initiating each of the next treatment cycles is generated.

A device for extracorporeal blood treatment comprising at least a first concentrate connection which is set up to feed at least a first concentrate into the device for extracorporeal blood treatment as the basis for generating a dialysate; at least a second concentrate connection which is configured to feed at least a second concentrate into the device for extracorporeal blood treatment as the basis for generating a dialysate; wherein the device for extracorporeal blood treatment is configured to switch over from supplying the at least first concentrate to supplying the at least second concentrate at a predetermined time or after a predetermined period of time during an ongoing blood treatment.
