  • Patent number: 10220131
    Abstract: The blood purification system includes a plurality of monitoring devices (1) with a dialyzer (5) to perform a blood purification treatment on a patient. A dialysate supplying device (2) supplies a dialysate to each of the monitoring devices (1). The plurality of monitoring devices (1) and the dialysate supplying device (2) are connected to each other by a LAN cable ?. Predetermined information can be transmitted from the dialysate supplying device (2) to a specified monitoring device (1), out of the plurality of monitoring devices (1). The specified monitoring device (1) can perform an individual operation.

  • Patent number: 9623166
    Abstract: A mixing apparatus which can reliably prevent an auxiliary liquid from being unintentionally mixed into a main unit even when a failure occurs in a switching device, and which can prevent the switching device or an auxiliary flow route from being damaged even when a pressurizing device malfunctions due to the failure. The mixing apparatus includes a pipe circulating dilution water; a pipe circulating a disinfecting solution; a pressurizing pump circulating the disinfecting solution in the pipe toward the pipe; and a check valve capable of optionally turning on and off the pipe.
