<p>The present invention relates to dialysis systems and methods of performing dialysis. In particular, the present invention relates to a system and method for automatically providing peritoneal dialysis therapy to patients. The present invention provides automatic multiple exchanges of dialysis fluid to and from the patient's peritoneal cavity. The automatic exchanges of dialysate include drain, fill, and dwell periods, which usually occur while the patient sleeps. A typical therapy can include three to five exchanges of dialysis fluid. The present invention, in an embodiment, provides a single pass system, wherein the dialysate passes through the peritoneal cavity only once before being disposed.
