Dialysate production system with dialysate pellets

摘要

Dry chemical pellets containing an acid, base, and salt, have the necessary chemicals to form a dialysate when mixed with a predetermined amount of water stored in mixing tanks from which the dialysate can be circulated to a hemodialysis circuit. The pellets can be varied in composition and dispensed in a prescribed order to vary the dialysate in accordance with the patient's needs.
