Abstract: A dialysis assist device for use by peritoneal dialysis patients facilitates connection of tubing communicating fluid bags with a catheter implanted in the dialysis patient. The assist device includes a tray which includes a groove extending through the tray which receives tubing and a connecter for connecting the tubing to the catheter. The connecter includes a flange that is received in a groove in the aperture, thereby holding the connecter while the patient connects the catheter to the connecter. Receptacles are provided for receiving the used cap covering the catheter and for assisting the patient in connecting a new sterile cap to the catheter when dialysis has been completed.
