Therapy prediction and optimization for renal failure blood therapy, especially home hemodialysis

摘要

A renal failure blood therapy system includes: (i) a renal failure blood therapy machine; (ii) a therapy prescription for a patient treated by the renal failure blood therapy machine to remove a solute from the patient's blood; (iii) a test including multiple blood samples taken at multiple times during a test therapy to determine concentration levels of the solute at each of the multiple times; and (iv) a device programmed to use a kinetic model for the solute in a first instance with at least one of the concentration levels of the solute to estimate at least one estimated patient parameter. The device is further programmed to enable a user to determine at least one of a therapy duration, a therapy frequency, a dialysate flowrate or a blood flowrate for the therapy prescription. 0 C) C) C)C a)A - a CO co C)D Co C -. - 2 ) ca C) CL a) ~0- I O a) d U) (D o 47----ac 0 ) ct = E :, U3 C X= 0 C)U =) I~~~E ED 0 c- L o wC IC) o z2 2 a) , U) 2) ca co ip 0- 1 C C 4 I (D I In _c CI w- c 6 (D C N - - - - - - -
