20090127193 | Dialysis Systems and Methods - This disclosure generally relates to dialysis systems and related methods. In one aspect of the invention, a dialysis system includes a device configured so that a medical fluid can pass therethrough, and the device is adapted to remove one or more substances from the medical fluid as the medical fluid passes through the device. The dialysis system can also include a sodium control system adapted to alter a sodium concentration of the medical fluid. | 05-21-2009 |
20100235168 | TERMINAL AND METHOD FOR EFFICIENT USE AND IDENTIFICATION OF PERIPHERALS HAVING AUDIO LINES - A communication system comprises a terminal configured for being able to communicate with a computer and to operate according to at least one operational parameter. A peripheral device for use with the terminal has a characterizing parameter associated therewith. The terminal is operable for reading the characterizing parameter from the peripheral device when the device is coupled to the terminal. The terminal is further operable for configuring itself to operate according to an operational parameter associated with the characterizing parameter of the peripheral device. | 09-16-2010 |
20110017665 | Dialysis Systems and Methods - This disclosure generally relates to dialysis systems and related methods. In one aspect of the invention, a dialysis system includes a device configured so that a medical fluid can pass therethrough, and the device is adapted to remove one or more substances from the medical fluid as the medical fluid passes through the device. The dialysis system can also include a sodium control system adapted to alter a sodium concentration of the medical fluid. | 01-27-2011 |
20120285870 | Medical Tubing Installation Detection - This disclosure relates to detecting fluid in medical tubing. In certain aspects, a method is performed by a data processing apparatus. The method includes controlling repetitive activation of the ultrasonic transmitter. The method also includes receiving a signal from the ultrasonic receiver during an activation of the ultrasonic transmitter. The method also includes determining that fluid is absent or present in a portion of the medical fluid tube based on a comparison between the signal and a threshold value. | 11-15-2012 |
20120289928 | Medical Tubing Installation Detection - This disclosure relates to medical tubing installation detection. In certain aspects, a method is performed by a data processing apparatus. The method includes detecting that a tube is incorrectly installed on a drug delivery device by providing an instruction for a motor of the drug delivery device to pump a drug and receiving, after a period of time has passed since providing the instruction for the motor of the drug delivery device to pump the drug, a signal from a fluid detector connected to the tube, the signal indicating an absence of fluid in the tube. | 11-15-2012 |
20130167052 | Drug Delivery Devices and Related Systems and Methods - In some aspects, a method includes displaying multiple different screens on a user interface during a treatment, administering a first drug during the treatment; and while administering the first drug, displaying an identifier of the first drug in a drug identification region of the user interface. The drug identification region is present on the user interface with each of the different screens, and the identifier of the first drug is displayed in the drug identification region of the user interface regardless of which of the different screens is displayed. | 06-27-2013 |
20130289515 | Vial Spiking Devices and Related Assemblies and Methods - In some aspects, a vial spiking device includes a base, a spike extending from the base, and a side wall extending from the base and substantially surrounding the spike. The base and the side wall partially define a recess to receive a portion of a vial. Resilient fingers extend inwardly from the side wall into the recess. The fingers are spaced circumferentially around the side wall and are configured so that as the vial is inserted into the recess, the fingers deflect toward the side wall and allow the portion of the vial to move beyond the fingers. The fingers rebound into the recess after the portion of the vial has moved beyond the fingers. The side wall forces the portion of the vial away from the base and into contact with the fingers after the fingers have rebounded into the recess. | 10-31-2013 |
