Abstract: A pressure-measuring device according to the invention has a hydrophobic membrane, which is air permeable in the dry state and air impermeable in a moistened state, and a pressure sensor, which is in mechanical contact with the hydrophobic membrane and which is designed to follow a movement of the membrane. During the filling of a line system, air is separated via the hydrophobic membrane and, in the air-impermeable state, the pressure in the line system is measured by means of the moistened hydrophobic membrane.

Abstract: A layout description file and a parameter description file are received. The layout description file specifies a configuration page for configuring settings of an application installed on an end user device, and includes parameter page elements. Each parameter page element is used for rendering a user interface (UI) element for that page element, and each parameter page element includes include a parameter identifier that references a set of one or more configuration parameters in the parameter description file. A configuration visualization is dynamically built using the layout description file and the parameter description file, and rendered. Through the configuration visualization, at least one change to a configuration setting for the application is received.

A configuration visualization is dynamically built using the layout description file and the parameter description file, and rendered on a web browser. Through the configuration visualization, at least one change to a configuration setting for the application is received. The configuration setting change is transmitted to a centralized management system for deployment of the configuration to the end user devices.

Abstract: A method for pre-filling a hemodialysis apparatus includes providing a hemodialysis apparatus comprising a pre-filling liquid source which supplies a pre-filling liquid, a dialyzer, a dialysate side, a blood side. The dialysate side comprises a dialysate chamber, a dialysate pump to pump the pre-filling liquid to the dialysate chamber, and a waste pump to pump the pre-filling liquid away from the dialysate chamber. The blood side comprises an arterial line, a blood pump, a blood chamber of the dialyzer, and a venous line. A pressure sensor is arranged on the dialysate side or on the blood side. The arterial line and the venous line are pre-filled with the pre-filling liquid via the dialysate pump. A blood-side fluid pressure is continuously determined via the pressure sensor during the pre-filling. The pre-filling is stopped when the blood-side fluid pressure determined by the pressure sensor exceeds or falls below a defined limit pressure.
