Abstract: A warming unit (21) coupled or configured to be coupled to a heated portion (19) of a fluid circuit (6, 7, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15; 107) of a medical device (1, 100). The warming unit (21) comprises a leakage current reduction circuit (35) configured to perform the following procedure: connecting a heat transfer element (22) of the warming unit (21) to a ground connection (33) through a resistance element (34), which keeps a normal condition patient leakage current below a first limit value, and disconnecting the heat transfer element (22) from the ground connection (33) if a current indicating that a patient is connected to a mains voltage is sensed through the resistance element (34), in order to keep a fault condition patient leakage current below a second limit value.

Abstract: A fluid temperature control device for an extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus, comprises: a casing (26) delimiting a heating/cooling seat (20) configured to accommodate a fluid warming bag (17) connected or connectable to an extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus (1); heating elements (29, 30) operatively active in the heating seat (20) to heat the fluid warming bag (17); at least a presence detector (32, 33) operatively active in the heating seat (20) to detect the presence of the fluid warming bag (17). The presence detector (32, 33) comprises an electromagnetic transmitter (34) and an electromagnetic receiver (35).
