Abstract: An apparatus for an extracorporeal treatment of blood has a supply line, a waste line, and an ultrafilter inserted in the supply line. An air inlet line is connected to a first chamber of the ultrafilter. A pressure sensor is configured for detecting pressure in the waste line or a second chamber of the ultrafilter. A controller is configured to perform an integrity test procedure for detecting when an ultrafilter membrane of the ultrafilter has multiple or single fiber breaks. A method of testing the ultrafilter is also disclosed.

Abstract: An apparatus for extracorporeal treatment of blood (1) has a supply line (2), a waste line (13) and an ultrafilter (19; 70) inserted in the supply line (2). An air inlet line is connected to the first chamber (21; 72) of the ultrafilter (19; 70) and a pressure sensor (41) configured for detecting pressure in the waste line (13). A controller (50) is configured to carry out, with the hydraulic circuit (100) in by-pass configuration, an integrity test procedure for detecting if the ultrafilter membrane has multiple or single fiber breaks. A method of testing the ultrafilter (19; 70) is also disclosed.

Abstract: It is described an extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus (1) with a user interface (12) device capable configuring and allowing execution of one or more isolated ultrafiltration tasks during the course of a dialysis treatment. The extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus (1) is controlled in a normal mode, where dialysis fluid is fed to the blood treatment unit (2), and in an isolated ultrafiltration mode, where fresh dialysis fluid is no longer fed to the blood treatment unit (2).
