BLOOD PURIFICATION MACHINE COMPRISING HEATED FLUID CIRCUIT

摘要

A machine for extracorporeal blood treatment comprising a machine-side fluid circuit is disclosed. The machine comprises a heat exchanger for heating cold purification fluid freshly supplied on its intake side, for which purpose used still warm purification fluid flows past its opposite discharge side for a heat exchange, and a circulation valve for changing over between a blood purification mode in which the used purification fluid is disposed of in an open fluid circuit through the discharge side of the heat exchanger into a drain and a disinfection mode in which hot disinfectant is circulated in a closed circuit. The circulation valve is connected downstream of the heat exchanger with respect to the discharge side thereof.

1. A machine for extracorporeal blood treatment comprising a machine-side fluid circulation, the machine comprising:
a heat exchanger for heating cold purification fluid or water freshly supplied on its intake side, for which purpose used still warm purification fluid or dialysis fluid flows past its opposite discharge side for heat exchange and a circulation valve for changing over between a blood purification mode in which the used purification fluid is disposed of in an open fluid circuit through the discharge side of the heat exchanger into a drain and a disinfection mode in which hot disinfectant is circulated at least temporarily in a closed fluid circuit, wherein the circulation valve is connected downstream of the heat exchanger on the discharge side thereof.
