Systems and methods for providing notifications in dialysis systems

摘要

A system and method provide information in response to at least one current event related to a treatment performed by a dialysis system. A first number is displayed at a treatment display in communication with the dialysis system. The first number corresponds to a set of current notifications. Each current notification is generated in response to at least one current event related to the treatment. A new event is detected that is related to the treatment. The first number is increased to a second number in response to detecting the new event. The second number corresponds to a new notification generated in response to the new event and corresponds to the set of current notifications. A highest priority event is determined between the new event and the at least one current event. The treatment display displays at least one notification corresponding to the highest priority event.

1. A computer-implemented method of performing dialysis and displaying information
in response to at least one event related to a treatment performed by a dialysis system, comprising:
providing a dialysis system comprising a dialysis machine and an extracorporeal circuit for removing blood from a patient, at least one of filtering and dialyzing of the blood, and returning cleaned blood to the patient, while monitoring safety-critical parameters within the circuit;displaying a first number at a treatment display, the first number corresponding to a number of current notifications including messages corresponding to different events detected by the monitoring in an event category, the first number generated in response to at least one current event of the different events in the event category related to the treatment;detecting a new event from the monitoring of the different events in the event category related to the treatment;displaying a second number in response to detecting the new event, the second number corresponding to a combination of a new notification message generated in response to the new event in the event category and the message corresponding to the at least one current event of the different events in the event category number of current notifications;determining a highest priority event between the new event and the at least one current event; anddisplaying at the treatment display at least one notification corresponding to the highest priority event enabling suggesting a course of action that corrects an abnormal monitored parameter.
