Abstract: Constraining adaptive optimizations of a state of an operation module of a medical device includes determining if a new state has at least one operational parameter that is outside a constraint that has been provided to the medical device in a non-repudiable manner, accepting the new state if no operational parameters are outside any of the constraints, and reverting the medical device to a previous valid state if at least one operational parameter is outside at least one of the constraints. The adaptive optimizations may be provided using artificial intelligence along with relevant inputs thereto. The medical device may be a dialysis system. Constraint data may be provided to the medical device along with a one-way hash value of the constraint data using, for example, a SHA 256 hash. The one-way hash value may be digitally signed using a private key that is part of a public/private key pair.

Abstract: A system for monitoring a vascular access is provided. The system includes a wearable vascular access monitor which can be a sleeve or other protective covering fitted with two or more sensors for obtaining physiological measurements at different locations from the vascular access. The sleeve or other protective covering is also fitted with an ultra-low power processor for relaying the physiological measurements to a patient's mobile phone. The patient's phone can evaluate the physiological measurements to determine a state of the vascular access, and if the physiological measurements fall out of nominal ranges, the patient's phone can alert a clinic, nurse, or physician. The system can be used to monitor fistulas or grafts used for hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.
