本発明は、中空系膜型血液浄化器を接続してなる体外循
環回路のプライミング方法に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a method for priming an extracorporeal circulation circuit connected to a hollow membrane type blood purifier.
(従来の技術)

とを目的としている。(Prior art) In blood purification therapy using a hollow fiber membrane type blood purifier, before the start of treatment, the parts that come into contact with blood, that is, the inside of the hollow fiber membrane and the inside of the blood circulation tube, must be cleaned and air removed. In order to do this, an operation called priming must be performed. This priming flushes out sterilizers and foreign matter remaining inside the hollow fiber membrane and inside the blood circulation tube, and at the same time expels air to prevent foreign matter or air from getting into the blood or causing hemolysis during extracorporeal circulation treatment. The purpose is to prevent
従来よりプライミング操作には、血液浄化器の滅菌法に
応じて大別して2通りの方法が採用されている。Conventionally, two methods have been adopted for the priming operation, which are roughly classified depending on the sterilization method of the blood purifier.
エチレンオキサイドガス或いは高圧蒸気等で滅菌された

は血液循環チューブ外へ追い出し、同時に中空糸膜内側
及び血液循環チューブ内の洗浄を行っている。In a so-called dry type blood purifier, in which the inside and outside of the hollow fiber membrane are sterilized using ethylene oxide gas or high-pressure steam, etc., the inside and outside of the membrane are substantially dry, the blood purifier and the blood circulation tube, both of which are in a dry state, are connected. After that, with the blood purifier in a vertical position, a priming aqueous solution is gradually supplied from the blood circulation tube side connected to the lower blood side inlet, and the air inside the hollow fiber membrane is drawn upward with the priming aqueous solution. The blood is pushed up to the blood side outlet and then expelled out of the blood circulation tube, and at the same time, the inside of the hollow fiber membrane and the inside of the blood circulation tube are cleaned.

もこの様な人的操作に頼ったプライミング操作は、操作
完了迄にかなりの時間を要する。(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, this priming operation has technical difficulties in completely replacing the air inside the hollow fiber membrane with the priming aqueous solution, and usually requires only a skilled professional engineer. The actual situation is that the air inside the hollow fiber membrane is expelled to the blood side outlet by applying vibrations to the blood purifier from the outside. Furthermore, such a priming operation that relies on human operations requires a considerable amount of time to complete.

循環回路について行なう場合も、専門技術者の熟練した
腕に依存したものである。Furthermore, in the priming operation of a so-called wet type blood purifier, in which both the inside and outside of the hollow fiber membrane are filled with sterile water or distilled water, the air inside the hollow membrane is already removed. , there is no difficulty in removing air from the inside of the hollow fiber membrane as described above, but instead, before connecting the blood circulation tube supplied in a dry state to the blood purifier, an aqueous priming solution is first applied to the blood circulation tube. Fill the aqueous solution up to the very edge of the tube by passing the liquid through it, and then connect this end and the end of the blood side of the blood purifier to the inside of the hollow fiber membrane, being careful not to let air in. There is the hassle of connecting while ensuring that the sterilized water or distilled water that is filled in the device does not leak. That is,
The conventional priming operation, when performed on an extracorporeal circulation circuit including either a dry type or a wet type blood purifier, relies on the skilled hands of a specialist engineer.

技術者の確保が必要となる上、各技術者には操作の確実

等の問題がある。Therefore, priming operations for hemodialysis, etc., which are often performed on a large number of patients at the same time, require a large number of specialized technicians, and each technician needs to be sure that the operation is reliable. There are problems such as speediness is required and mental and physical fatigue is great.

This enables priming operation without worrying about residual air.

溶液のみが流れ込みエアーが混入しない。(Function) In the priming method of the present invention, the priming aqueous solution is supplied to the inside of the hollow fiber membrane of the blood purifier, and the blood circulation tube connected to the blood side inlet and blood side outlet of the blood purifier communicates with the inside of the hollow fiber membrane of the blood purifier. Unlike the conventional method in which liquid is passed only through the so-called blood side circuit, the priming aqueous solution is supplied from the outside of the hollow fiber membrane, that is, from the dialysate circuit side of a hemodialyzer, for example, and the priming aqueous solution is passed through the hollow fiber membrane wall. Even if air is mixed in the priming aqueous solution, it cannot pass through the hollow fiber membrane wall, so only the priming aqueous solution flows into the blood side circuit and no air is mixed in.

フリーの透析液によるプライミング操作が実現できる。In particular, in the case of a wet-type hemodialyzer, even non-experts can do this by being careful not to let out the sterile water that has been filled inside the hollow fiber membrane when connecting the hemodialyzer and the blood circulation tube. The priming operation of the present invention can be performed easily. In other words, an extracorporeal circulation circuit for treatment is assembled, and a means for removing endotoxin in the dialysate is interposed in the circuit connecting the dialysate supply source and the dialysate inlet of the hemodialyzer, and the dialysate is removed in the same manner as during treatment. When this operation is performed to supply the dialysate to the hemodialyzer, endotoxin-free dialysate is supplied to the dialysate population of the hemodialyzer, and this flows into the inside of the hollow fiber membrane through the hollow system membrane, resulting in endotoxin-free dialysate. The priming operation can be realized by

れる。Here, a method of feeding using the injection pump (16) will be explained. The pressure on the outside of the hollow fiber membrane (5) increases, and the sterilized water filled there passes through the hollow fiber membrane wall (6) and moves to the inside of the hollow fiber membrane (4). As a result, the amount of sterile water and physiological saline solution inside the hollow fiber membrane increases and flows into the blood circulation tube (2) and into the artery side chamber (8).
reach. The arterial side chamber (8) is equipped with a liquid level detector (9) that detects the liquid level without contacting the liquid, and when the liquid level detector (9) detects a predetermined liquid level, the pinch valve is activated. (17) is closed and the pinch valve (19) is opened.At the same time, the infusion pump (16) is stopped and the blood pump (11) rotates normally (that is, reversely in the figure). (clockwise), the pinch valve (20) is opened, and the pinch valve (21) is closed. Physiological saline flows from the blood circulation tube tip (12) into the tube (2) and the dialyzer hollow fiber membrane. It passes through the inside (4) and reaches the venous chamber (18).The venous chamber (18)
) is also provided with a liquid level detector (22) of the same type as mentioned above,
When the liquid level is detected by this liquid level detector (22), the pinch valve (20) is closed and the pinch valve (21) is opened to keep the liquid level constant. In this state, the blood pump (11) continues to rotate, and once a predetermined amount of saline has been flowed, the process automatically ends. At this time, the blood pump (11) is stopped, the pinch valves (17, 20) are closed, and the pinch valves (19, 21) are closed.
becomes open. As a means of determining the end time, it is possible to set the approximate required time using a timer or the like, or to use the infusion pump (16) and blood pump (11).
Alternatively, the amount of saline to be injected may be calculated from the rotational speed of , and it may be determined that a predetermined amount of injected water has been reached. In the above priming operation, everything except the circuit connection at the start is performed automatically.

ーブ(12)の部に絞り機構(23)を用いても良い。First, as shown in FIG. 2, the dialyzer (1), blood circulation tubes (2, 3), and dialysate tubes (12, 14) are connected. Before connecting the circuit, close the pinch valve (17) to prevent the sterile water inside the hollow fiber membrane (4) from flowing out and falling into the blood circulation tube (3). After completing the circuit connection, start flowing the priming aqueous solution. Keep the pinch valve (17) closed and open the pinch valve (1).
