<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for regulating fluid pump pressure by detecting an elevation differential between a fluid flow control device and a distal end of a fluid line in communication with the fluid flow control device. <P>SOLUTION: The fluid flow control device 200, for instance, a peritoneal dialysis device is at a first height, the distal end 208 of the fluid line is at a second height, and a valved outlet, when opens, affords communication between the flow control device 200 and the distal end of the fluid line. The elevation differential is correlatable with a pressure measurable during a calibration procedure provided as a part of the methodology. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
