<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reliably eliminate bubbles in a blood chamber 2C of a dialyzer 2 when priming a dialysis device. <P>SOLUTION: When the dialysis device is primed, a dialyzer 2 is first held upside down, contrary to the case of dialysis therapy, and then rotating a blood pump 14 to thereby fill up a blood circuit 3 and the inside of the dialyzer 2 with physiological saline contained in a physiological saline bag 17. By means of a liquid level-adjusting means 5, air is then introduced, through an atmosphere pathway 6', a drip chamber 15' of a vein side pathway 12 and the vein side pathway 12, into the upper part of a blood chamber 2C including a second port 2H [Fig.3(b)]. Thus, small air bubbles in the second port 2H of the dialyzer 2 are combined with the air having been introduced through the drip chamber 15. Next, the air is discharged to the outside of the dialyzer 2 by the physiological saline that is introduced again into the blood chamber 2C. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
