MOBILE MEDICAL FLUID GENERATION SYSTEM
A mobile dialysis fluid generation system includes a cargo unit configured to be transported by a vehicle; a cleanroom located inside the cargo unit; water purification equipment; at least one dialysis fluid preparation unit located inside the cleanroom; and at least one area provided outside the cleanroom but inside the cargo unit for storing at least one of a raw material or containers filled with dialysis fluid. The at least one dialysis fluid preparation unit includes at least one concentrate, a mixing device configured to receive purified water from the water purification equipment and to mix the purified water with the at least one concentrate to form dialysis fluid, and a tubing set for transfer of the dialysis fluid from the mixing device to a container positioned and arranged to receive the dialysis fluid.
Filtration system for preparation of fluids for medical applications
A treatment system for performing a treatment on a patient may include a treatment fluid preparation device having a pump connected by a fluid channel to a reservoir of a source fluid, the pump conveying the source fluid from the reservoir, through a filter, and combining the source fluid with a concentrate by pumping the source fluid with the concentrate to form a treatment fluid in a batch container. The treatment fluid preparation device may have a controller that controls a heater, the pump, and a memory. The controller starts the heater to warm the treatment fluid in the batch container at a time that is responsive to the treatment time stored in the memory. The controller also detects a pressure property of the filter to determine its integrity and outputs an indication of a failed batch if the pressure property indicates the integrity of the filter is insufficient.
Dialysis systems, devices, and methods
A treatment device system includes a treatment machine for performing a therapy on a patient, the treatment machine including at least one fluid conveyor and a controller, the controller having a first memory, to cause the at least one fluid conveyor to produce a therapeutic fluid by mixing purified water and at least one concentrate. The system also includes a water purifier with an internal central controller, in fluid communication with and providing the purified water to the treatment machine. A wired or wireless control line provides two way communication between the controller of the treatment machine and the internal central controller of the water purifier, the controller of the treatment machine transmitting data via the control line to the internal central controller of the water purifier for control of the water purifier, the data provided based on at least one of the operator inputs received via the user interface.
Dialysis systems, devices, and methods
A treatment device system includes a treatment machine for generating a custom dialysis solution and including at least one fluid conveyor, the treatment machine having a controller, the controller having a first memory, configured to produce the custom dialysis solution by causing the at least one fluid conveyor to mix purified water and at least one concentrate.

A server is communicatively coupled with the treatment machine and a control line provides two way communication between the controller of the treatment machine and the internal central controller of the water purifier.
Fluid Management and Measurement Systems, Devices, and Methods
A medicament preparation system includes a disposable cartridge with a flow path. Various sensors may be placed on the cartridge to measure qualities of the fluid flowing through the flow path. The sensors are placed in precise locations using various approaches that make manufacturing of the cartridge efficient and repeatable. A drain line that is susceptible to fouling may be preattached and various approaches are used to remove or reduce the fouling. An elastomeric contact can also be present in the medical preparation system and used in a conductivity measurement subsystem.
Dialysate solution container
A dialysate solution container includes a flexible first bag body. The dialysate solution container further includes a second bag body which has a mixing region for mixing a first powdered pharmaceutical agent and water at a lower end portion of a second interior. The second bag body further has a communication pipe that places the exterior of the second bag body and the second interior in communication, and a first filter which is in communication with a first interior of the first bag body. A first end of the communication pipe is capable of being connected to a dialysis circuit, and a second end thereof is disposed within the mixing region.
Peritoneal Dialysis Systems, Devices, and Methods
A treatment device system includes a peritoneal dialysis treatment machine for performing a therapy on a patient, the treatment machine including at least one fluid conveyor and a controller, the controller having a first memory, to cause the at least one fluid conveyor to produce a peritoneal dialysis solution by mixing purified water and at least one concentrate.
