Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a bag holder for receiving a first effluent bag, which serves for receiving effluent resulting from a blood treatment being performed by a blood treatment apparatus and includes at least one closable effluent outlet opening and at least one effluent inlet opening. The bag holder includes one or several rollers for rolling the bag holder and at least one of the following features: a holding device for holding the first effluent bag in the bag holder, a receptacle for receiving the first effluent bag or a section thereof, a pump section for conveying effluent out of first effluent bag being received in the bag holder, at least one effluent outlet line for guiding effluent towards the pump section and/or out of the first effluent bag and/or at least one basin line for guiding effluent into the first effluent bag and/or away from the bag holder.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus (1) for holding a disposable medical item, in particular a dialyzer (2), plasma filter or adsorbent, for treating blood, a system (10) comprising such an apparatus, and a method for operating a disposable medical item for treating blood. A bearing device (4) is thereby configured to rotatably support the disposable item, and a drive device (5) is thereby configured to rotate the rotatably mounted disposable item around a longitudinal axis (L) extending substantially in a direction in which the blood flows through the disposable item when the disposable item is in operation. Alternatively or additionally, a sensor device (6) is configured to detect a rotation of the rotatably mounted disposable item around at least one rotational axis (L, Q), in particular around the longitudinal axis (L) and/or around a transverse axis (Q) running perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (L) and output corresponding sensor data.

Abstract: A method for determining a pressure of a medical fluid in a fluid line by using at least one centrifugal pump includes detecting the pressure upstream of the centrifugal pump while considering an information about a pressure downstream of the centrifugal pump, or detecting the pressure downstream of the centrifugal pump while considering an information about a pressure upstream of the centrifugal pump. Thereby, at least one information about the volume flow in the fluid line and/or at least one information about a rotation speed of the centrifugal pump are considered, respectively. The invention also relates to a method for determining a volume flow, an arithmetic unit, a treatment apparatus, a digital storage means, a computer program product and a computer program.

Abstract: A medical functional device includes at least one first fluid system for receiving at least one medical fluid, at least one first conveying device for conveying the medical fluid, at least one second fluid system for receiving at least one operating fluid, and at least one second conveying device for operating the at least first conveying device, in which the first conveying device is arranged such as to be actuated by means of the operating fluid. A treatment apparatus and a method are also described.
