Abstract: A dialysis system includes at least one source of fluid for dialysis, a fluid line in fluid communication with the at least one source of fluid, at least one pump positioned and arranged to pump fluid from the at least one source of fluid through the fluid line, a first patient connector configured to be removably placed in fluid communication with the fluid line to allow a blood treatment to be performed using the at least one source of fluid, and a second patient connector configured to be removably placed in fluid communication with the fluid line to allow a peritoneal dialysis treatment to be performed using the at least one source of fluid.

Abstract: A dialysis system includes: a dialysis fluid pump receptacle actuated by a dialysis fluid pump actuator; a dialysis fluid line; a blood filter in fluid communication with the dialysis fluid pump receptacle via the dialysis fluid line; an extracorporeal circuit; a blood pump receptacle actuated by a blood pump actuator and in fluid communication with the blood filter via the extracorporeal circuit; and a control unit that (i) in a first treatment pumps peritoneal dialysis fluid through the dialysis fluid pump receptacle, the dialysis fluid line, the blood filter, the extracorporeal circuit and the blood pump receptacle to the patient's peritoneum operating the dialysis fluid pump actuator and the blood pump actuator at a first pressure, and (ii) in a second treatment pumps blood through the extracorporeal circuit, the blood pump receptacle and the blood filter operating the blood pump actuator at a second, different pressure.

Abstract: A method for performing renal therapy at a home or dwelling of a patient using a renal therapy machine includes electronically retrieving a doctor's prescription for renal therapy and based on the doctor's prescription, enabling electronic selection of supplies, including a dialyzer, at a first location other than the patient's home or dwelling by a person other than the patient. The method further includes electronically initiating a sending of the supplies and the renal therapy machine to the patient's home or dwelling.

Abstract: A computer readable medium stores instructions configured to cause a home therapy machine to allow an at home patient selection of a device program from a plurality of device programs stored on the home therapy machine and perform an at home treatment using fluid flow equipment provided by the home therapy machine according to the selected device program. The instructions are further configured to receive data generated during the at home treatment and generate at least one log file based upon the received data.

Abstract: A system and method is provided to allow multiple patients to receive peritoneal dialysis treatment at a walk-in facility without having to keep fresh dialysis solution on hand themselves. The walk-in facility is enabled to receive a peritoneal dialysis prescription from a patient, verify the prescription, determine the appropriate treatment for the patient, provide the patient with the appropriate dialysis solution in the appropriate amount, and enable the patient to undergo a dialysis treatment at the facility. The walk-in facility can also be enabled to monitor the patient's home dialysis treatment and to adjust the patient's treatment at the facility accordingly. The facility can be enabled to produce dialysis solution on demand by manufacturing the solution from solution components according to a patient's prescription. Moreover, the facility can use a sorbent system to regenerate effluent dialysis solution into fresh dialysis solution.
