1. A method carried out by a blood fluid removal device or system, comprising:
initiating a blood fluid removal session for a patient in need thereof; monitoring a cardiovascular parameter and at least one additional physiological parameter of the patient with at least one sensor; determining whether an indicator of the cardiovascular parameter or physiological parameter crosses a predetermined threshold; and altering a parameter of the blood fluid removal session if the indicator is determined to have crossed the threshold, wherein the blood fluid removal device comprises control electronics, wherein the control electronics are configured to control one or more flow control elements to adjust a pH or electrolyte concentration of a replacement fluid based on the data from the at least one sensor; and wherein altering a parameter of the blood fluid removal session comprises setting or adjusting the pH and electrolyte concentration of the replacement fluid based at least on the cardiovascular or physiological parameter of the patient wherein the step of altering the parameter of the blood fluid removal session is carried out by the blood fluid removal device.
