Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A system and method for balancing flows of renal replacement fluid is disclosed. The method uses pressure controls and pressure sensing devices to more precisely meter and balance the flow of fresh dialysate and spent dialysate. The balancing system may use one or two balancing devices, such as a balance tube, a tortuous path, or a balance chamber.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A renal therapy system comprising: a dialyzer; a balancing system configured to equalize flow volume of renal failure therapy fluid flowing to the dialyzer and from the dialyzer, the balancing system including a fresh renal therapy fluid portion and a spent renal therapy fluid portion; a fresh renal therapy fluid pressure sensor positioned and arranged to detect a pressure of fresh renal failure therapy fluid delivered to the fresh renal therapy fluid po…
