  • Fluid leak detection in a dialysis machine
    Patent number: 11266773
    Abstract: A dialysis machine (e.g., a peritoneal dialysis machine) may include a housing. The machine may further include a leak detector disposed in the housing, the leak detector being an electrical circuit. In response to fluid contacting the leak detector, a leak in the dialysis machine is detectable. The machine is configured to send a signal based on a short of the electrical circuit from fluid contact with the leak detector to indicate a leak condition.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 7, 2020
    Date of Patent: March 8, 2022
    Assignee: Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc.
    Inventors: Hernando Garrido, Anthony T. Ortega, Asif A. Khan, John A. Biewer
