MULTICHANNEL INFUSION SYSTEM FOR RENAL REPLACEMENT THERAPY

摘要

A multichannel infusion system for use with a hemofilter includes first and second measurement devices that measure the weight of a replacement fluid in a first receptacle and an ultrafiltrate in a second receptacle, a first pumping module configured to accept a first desired flow rate and deliver the replacement fluid from the first receptacle to the hemofilter at the accepted first desired flow rate, a second pumping module configured to accept a second desired flow rate and remove the ultrafiltrate from the hemofilter to the second receptacle at the accepted second desired flow rate, and a control system in communication with the first and second measurement units and the first and second pumping modules. The control system is configured to adjust the first and second desired flow rates based on the measurements made by the first and second measurement devices.
