Abstract: Peritonitis sensors, including peritonitis sensors for automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) systems, and associated systems, devices, and methods are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, an APD system includes a disposable set, a portion of which is at least partially aligned with a peritonitis sensor. The peritonitis sensor can be configured to capture one or more peritonitis measurements from the solution in the disposable set. The APD system can determine whether one or more peritonitis measurements indicate the presence of peritonitis in a patient from which the solution is drained. In some embodiments, if the APD system determines that one or more peritonitis measurements indicate peritonitis, the APD system can alert a user of the system to the presence of peritonitis in the patient.

Abstract: Pressure sensors, including optical pressure sensors for automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) systems, and associated systems, devices, and methods are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, an APD system includes a diaphragm positioned over an opening in a cavity of a disposable set. The diaphragm has an outer surface and an inner surface opposite the outer surface. The diaphragm is configured to deform in response to a force applied against the diaphragm due to pressure of fluid within the cavity. The APD system further includes a pressure sensor configured to measure a pressure of the fluid within cavity. The pressure sensor includes a light source and a photosensor.

Abstract: Damping devices, including damping devices for automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) systems, and associated systems, devices, and methods are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a damping device includes a body portion, a first membrane, and a second membrane. The body portion can include a first side, a second side opposite the first side, an inlet, and a cavity fluidly coupled to the inlet. The cavity can be defined at least in part by a lumen in the body portion extending from the first side to the second side. The first membrane can be affixed to the first side of the body portion such that the first membrane hermetically seals the cavity at the first side. The second membrane can be affixed to the second side of the body portion such that the second membrane hermetically seals the cavity at the second side.

Abstract: A method for enhancing recall and retention of educational material includes sending a series of structured interactions that are derived from educational material to a learner in small, discrete chunks over a period of time. The interactions may be repetitive and may require learner input and interaction.
