Abstract: A method and a dialysis machine for draining an extracorporeal fluid circuit are disclosed herein. The dialysis machine is connected to a dialyzer and the extracorporeal fluid circuit, which includes an arterial line connectable to a patient for drawing blood from the patient and a venous line connectable to the patient for returning blood to the patient. The method includes, after treatment termination, draining remaining fluid from the extracorporeal fluid circuit through the dialyzer.

Abstract: A system and a method for renal replacement therapy includes a blood treatment unit connected to a blood circuit and a dialysis fluid circuit, the system further including a control unit configured to control the system according to control instructions during a treatment, so as to determine a system parameter value and an indication of membrane fouling of the membrane, and activate an automatic anti-fouling measure that includes a temporary change of the flow rate in the blood circuit and a temporary decrease of the ultrafiltration rate wherein a timing of the temporary change and a timing of the temporary reduction are synchronized.

Abstract: An adjustable seat (1) incorporates a moveable squab element (4). The squab element may be moved from an initial position in which the squab element is flush with the remaining parts of the vehicle seat to a first intermediate position and then to a subsequent second position. The squab is mounted on a first linkage (7) which carries an intermediate support. A second linkage (10) extends from the intermediate support to a seat mount (9) incorporated with the squab element.
