MODULAR TYPE DIALYSIS SYSTEM AT HOME
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2003245344
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide an apparatus which establishes liquid connections between an extracorporeal circulation circuit and microbicide liquid sources in a blood dialysis system at home that is simple and reliable by automating the entire process and allows it move by the minimum labor of patients.

This system is provided with a microbicidal path for conveying microbicide liquids to the extracorporeal circulation circuit 28 in an extracorporeal circulation circuit unit having an artery side circuit and a vein side circuit, a microbicidal manifold which receives an artery side circuit connector into a first port thereof and a vein side circuit connector into a second port thereof, a microbicidal manifold which provides a sufficient amount of a peripheral space on each of the external surfaces of the artery side and vein side circuit connectors when the artery side and vein side circuit connectors are received into the first and second ports of the microbicidal manifold so that liquids can be circulated around the external surfaces of the artery side and vein side circuit connectors, and a return path for establishing the liquid connections between the microbicidal manifolds and the microbicide liquid sources from the extracorporeal circulation circuit.
