SYSTEM FOR CALCULATING A CHANGE IN FLUID VOLUME IN A PUMPING CHAMBER

A system for adjusting a negative pressure used to withdraw fluid from the peritoneal cavity of a dialysis patient is disclosed. The system comprises a controller arranged to control a pump by providing negative pressure in a magnitude that oscillates within a pre-determined range of negative pressu...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system for adjusting a negative pressure used to withdraw fluid from the peritoneal cavity of a dialysis patient is disclosed. The system comprises a controller arranged to control a pump by providing negative pressure in a magnitude that oscillates within a pre-determined range of negative pressures as a function of a measured flow rate of fluid.
