1. A dialysis system configured to operate in a hemodialysis mode and a hemofiltration mode, said dialysis system comprising:
a dialyzer having a dialysate side and a blood side, wherein the dialysate side and blood side are separated by a membrane; a blood circuit wherein said blood circuit directs blood from a patient, through the blood side of the dialyzer, and back to the patient; a dialysate circuit wherein said dialysate circuit directs dialysate through the dialysate side of the dialyzer, the dialysate circuit comprising
a first valve wherein, in a first state, the first valve directs a fluid through a channel to the dialysate side of the dialyzer and, in a second state, directs the fluid through a channel and into the blood circuit;a first container comprising a first material;a second container comprising a second material; anda second valve in fluid communication with the first and second container, wherein, in a first state, the second valve places the first material in physical communication with the fluid in the dialysate circuit and wherein, in a second state, the second valve places the second material in physical communication with the fluid in the dialysate circuit a sorbent cartridge; a fluid reservoir; and a plastic manifold having a plurality of ports, wherein a first of the plurality of ports connects to said sorbent cartridge via a first tube, a second of the plurality of ports connects to the water reservoir via a second tube, and wherein the plastic manifold houses a portion of the blood circuit and a portion of the dialysate circuit. |
