Abstract: An aspect of the disclosure relates to a dialysate regenerator, including: a purification means; at least one reversible retainer including an ion reservoir; a dialysate flow path including a dialysate inlet for receiving a dialysate, a dialysate outlet for dispensing the dialysate, the purification means and the at least one reversible retainer: a pump connected to the dialysate flow path and configured to generate a flow of the dialysate from the dialysate inlet via the reversible retainer and the purification means to the dialysate outlet, wherein a direction of the dialysate flow path through the reversible retainer is reversible.

Abstract: An aspect of the disclosure relates to a dialysate regenerator for connecting to a dialysis apparatus, the dialysate regenerator including a regenerator inlet for receiving dialysate; a regenerator outlet for dispensing regenerated dialysate; a hydraulic circuit connected between the regenerator inlet and the regenerator outlet, and further including a fluid portioning system to divide a dialysate flow into uniform portions for sequential regeneration An aspect of the disclosure relates to a dialysis system including a dialysis apparatus including: a fresh dialysate input; a spent dialysate output; and the dialysate regenerator, wherein the regenerator inlet may be coupled to the spent dialysate output for receiving spent dialysate, and wherein the regenerator outlet may be coupled to the fresh dialysate input for dispensing regenerated dialysate.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to dialysis devices. In some embodiments, a dialysis device may include a disposable housing having a storage chamber in fluid communication with a dialysate flow path. Also included may be a controller, an interface capable of operably coupling the controller and the disposable housing, a fluid displacement structure, a pump configured to actuate a deformable diaphragm, and a pressure sensor to trigger the reversal of the pump. The flow path may be fluidly sealed from the controller and the interface.

Abstract: A dialysis device is provided including a disposable housing having a flow path along which dialysate received from a patient is subjected to contaminant removal when in operation. The device includes a controller for controlling the operation of the disposable housing and an interface capable of operably coupling the controller and the disposable housing to enable the contaminant removal from the dialysate. The flow path is fluidly sealed from the controller and interface.

Abstract: There is provided a flow system of a dialysis device including a dialysate conduit which is capable of being in fluid communication with the peritoneal cavity of a patient's body and of being in fluid communication with a flow path, the flow path allowing dialysate to flow from a patient's body to a sorbent capable of removing contaminants within the dialysate in an outflow mode and in an inflow mode returning the dialysate substantially free of contaminants to the patient's body. The device also includes a pump for moving the dialysate along the flow path in both the outflow mode and inflow mode and a plurality of valves disposed along the flow path. There is also provided a portable dialysis device.

Abstract: A dialysis device is provided comprising a disposable housing having a dialysate flow path along which dialysate received from a patient is subjected to contaminant removal when in operation, wherein said disposable housing comprises a storage chamber in fluid communication with the dialysate flow path for storing the dialysate therein; a controller for controlling the operation of said disposable housing; an interface means capable of operably coupling the controller and the disposable housing to enable the contaminant removal from the dialysate, and a fluid displacement means configured to move the dialysate along the dialysate flow path, wherein said fluid displacement means comprises a deformable diaphragm integrally formed with at least one wall of said storage chamber, wherein the flow path is fluidly sealed from the controller and interface means. A method of dialysis, a dialysis system and kits are also provided.
