  • Publication number: 20230364313
    Abstract: The invention relates to an access system 1 for a medical device, which system has a housing body 21 in which an inner pipe portion 22 for transporting a medical fluid is formed, which portion is enclosed by an outer pipe portion 24 so as to form an empty space 23 for receiving a disinfectant fluid, the housing body 21 having an opening 25 that can be closed by a closure element. The access system 1 according to the invention is characterised in that a measuring electrode 30 and at least one counter electrode 31, 32 are arranged in the housing body 21 such that the measuring electrode 30 interacts with the counter electrode via the empty space 23. The measuring electrode 30 allows an electrical signal to be input such that a current flowing between the measuring electrode and the counter electrode or a voltage applied between the measuring electrode and the counter electrode can be evaluated.

  • Patent number: 10195329
    Abstract: A method of providing a concentrate of a dissolved substance for producing a dialysis solution includes providing a container containing a solid to be dissolved, supplying water into the container for dissolving the solid, draining the concentrate of the dissolved substance from the container and topping up with water, measuring the concentration of the dissolved substance or of a parameter correlated with the concentration, and temporary or permanent suppression of the topping up of water into the container. The suppression is effected when the measured concentration value of the dissolved substance falls below a first limit value or the value of the parameter falls below or exceeds a first limit value or when the change in the concentration value of the dissolved substance or of the value of the parameter exceeds a first limit value.
