Abstract

A machine is disclosed for use with an artificial kidney. The machine has three separately controllable pumps enabling delivery and return of a dialysate solution to an artificial kidney with precise control of various dialysate parameters such as temperature, pressure, conductivity, and flow rate.The machine has redundant control and monitor circuits to assure safe operation. The monitor circuit is capable of causing the machine to stop dialysis if any one of various monitored parameters goes out of limits.
