A predetermined time period of movement may also be controlled by utilizing a controller and/or a mobile application.

An extracorporeal blood treatment device is provided that includes a hydraulic system having a plurality of flow paths. A control unit provides an operating mode for disinfecting the hydraulic system with a liquid supplied via one of the flow paths. A method for operating the extracorporeal blood treatment device is also provided. The hydraulic system has a valve device that provides several switching positions. The valve device has an inlet for a liquid for disinfecting the hydraulic system, and a plurality of outlets. In a first switching position, the inlet is connected to one of the outlets. In another switching position, the inlet is connected to a plurality of the outlets. The inlet of the valve device is in fluid communication with a first flow path and the outlets are in fluid communication with another flow path. Disinfecting liquid can simultaneously be supplied to the individual flow paths.

Systems and methods for nitric oxide (NO) generation systems are provided. In some embodiments, an NO generation system comprises at least one pair of electrodes configured to generate a product gas containing NO from a flow of a reactant gas. The electrodes have elongated surfaces such that a plasma produced is carried by the flow of the reactant gas and glides along the elongated surfaces from a first end towards a second end of the electrode pair. A controller is configured to regulate the amount of NO in the product gas by the at least one pair of electrodes using one or more parameters as an input to the controller. The one or more parameters include information from a plurality of sensors configured to collect information relating to at least one of the reactant gas, the product gas, and a medical gas into which the product gas flows.
