Abstract

PURPOSE: To provide a sustaining liquid purifier with excellent operability and measuring accuracy by individually and intermittently measuring the flow rates of dialysis, replenisher and waste liquor to adjust the number of revolutions of corresponding pumps so that the actually measured values obtained coincide with respective set values. CONSTITUTION: Pumps 5 to 3 are functioned independently to individually and intermittently measure a the flow rates of a dialysis liquid, a replenisher and a waste liquor, respectively. When the flow rate of the dialysis liquid flowing through the dialysis liquid pump 5 is lower then a set value, the number of revolution of the pump 5 is increased and when it is higher, the number of revolutions of the pump 5 is decreased. In this manner, the flow rate is controlled to a value closer to the set value. When the flow rate of the resplenisher flowing through the replenisher pump 4 is lower than a set value, the number of revolutions of the replenisher pump 4 is increased and when it is higher, the number of revolutions of the replenisher pump 4 is decreased. When the flow rate of the waste liquor flowing through the waste liquor pump 3 is lower than a set value, the number of revolution of the waste liquor 3 is increased and when it is higher, the number of revolutions of the pump 3 is decreased.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as blood purification methods, whole blood exchange, plasma exchange, blood adsorption, hemodialysis, hemofiltration, hemodiafiltration, peritoneal dialysis and the like have been widely applied clinically. Improves the serious condition of patients with renal insufficiency and other conditions that are in a serious condition and therefore show signs of renal insufficiency, or who have become hydrated due to postoperative drug infusion In order to achieve this, it has been a long time since it was put into practical use to perform hemodialysis and hemofiltration in a clinical setting. Hemodialysis here means the principle of dialysis of waste products in the blood through the membrane, that is, solutes between the blood side and the dialysate side through the membrane (metabolic waste products in the blood, for example, urea, uric acid, creatinine, This is a method of selectively removing solutes through the membrane by the principle of so-called Donnan membrane equilibrium by utilizing the concentration difference and charge difference (electrolyte substances such as NaCl and KCl). It moves through the membrane.

On the other hand, hemofiltration has pores in the membrane, and the solvent itself containing the solute moves from the blood side to the other side through the pores of the membrane due to the pressure difference applied between the membranes. The solute that passes through is regulated by the size of the solute and the size of the pores in the membrane, which, unlike dialysis, allows selective removal by the principle of filtration. In this case, the removed body fluid component is usually replenished as a replenisher (hereinafter referred to as a replenisher). Whether to use this dialysis or filtration for the treatment of a patient having accumulated waste products in the blood or a patient with hyperhydration has been judged and selected by a clinician in consideration of the condition of each patient. That is, according to the prior art, the alternative method of dialysis or filtration has been exclusively used. The method of using the two in combination is extremely new. If this therapy is given for a short period of time, the fluid balance of the patient will suddenly change and the patient's condition will change suddenly, which will adversely affect the patient. Blood purification therapies are rapidly becoming widespread with the recognition that they have a minimal adverse effect on patients. In this case, the flow rate of the dialysate used is about one-tenth the flow rate of ordinary hemodialysis therapy. The effectiveness of this method is becoming clear especially in critically ill patients, and it is mainly carried out while strictly controlling the body fluid balance in ICU, CCU, etc.
In continuous blood purification therapy, it is necessary to gradually perform blood purification over a long period of time, and for that purpose, more strict patient body fluid balance management is required. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a highly accurate device that goes beyond the conventional wisdom.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In hemodiafiltration therapy, when a part of body fluid is removed in order to remove water and unnecessary substances from the body fluid of a patient, in order to maintain the balance of the body fluid, a useful substance such as electrolyte is added. Replenish as a replacement fluid. The volume of the replacement fluid is balanced with the volume of the fluid removed from the blood by the membrane filter, and unless the volumes of both are substantially the same or the difference between the volumes is not within the predetermined range, the volume of body fluid may decrease sharply. The rapid increase causes problems in managing the patient's condition. In the case of a patient undergoing treatment in an intensive care unit or the like, it is necessary to strictly control the body fluid balance.

In the conventional hemodiafiltration treatment, the volume of dialysate, the volume of filtrate removed from the blood, and the volume of replacement fluid are managed as one method by directly setting the flow rate set values of the dialysate pump and the replacement fluid pump as they are. The volume of filtrate removed from the blood is the sum of the volume of dialysate that has passed through the filter and the volume of filtrate removed from the blood, and the volume of waste fluid is measured with a graduated cylinder. It was calculated by subtracting the dialysate volume from the waste fluid volume. In this case, a roller pump is usually used for the dialysate pump and the waste fluid pump, but there are variations in the tube diameter,
Since the tube shape is deformed due to the pressure change in the tube during liquid transfer and the tube cross-sectional area changes, there is a difference between the pump setting value and the actual amount, and the error is generally ± 5% to ± 15.
There is about%. In addition, the degree of error differs depending on the circuit used. Especially, in the case of the waste liquid pump, the influence of the pressure change is the largest. That is, the blood purifier is
The blood clots and proteins in body fluids gradually adhere, and the filtration resistance gradually increases. When the waste liquid pump is rotating at a constant number of revolutions, the pressure on the filtration side of the blood purifier decreases as the filtration resistance increases, which causes deformation of the tube (decrease in cross-sectional area) and reduces the flow rate. This is well known in the field of treatment, and in reality, the waste liquid is received in a measuring container such as a graduated cylinder, the volume is sequentially measured, and the rotation speed of the waste liquid pump is kept to keep the waste liquid amount constant. Is being adjusted. However, the measuring accuracy with the graduated cylinder is not high,
In addition, the measurement person may forget to perform the measurement and a measurement error may occur such that the filtrate overflows the graduated cylinder.

A roller pump or a finger pump is used as the replacement fluid pump. Finger pumps are generally said to be more accurate than roller pumps by using a dedicated tube to prevent errors, but in reality, error ranges from ± 5% to ± 10%, similar to roller pumps. There is also. Therefore, since the relative error between the waste fluid pump and the replacement fluid pump can reach up to 20%, the amount of accumulated fluid error becomes considerably large in continuous blood purification therapy for a long time, and the patient's body fluid volume is higher than expected. Can increase or decrease over time, which adversely affects the patient's condition. In order to avoid this, it is necessary for the practitioner to sufficiently monitor the condition, which increases the burden on the practitioner.

As another method, there is a case where a weight management method is adopted in which the weight of the body fluid does not change by making the total weight of the dialysate and the replacement fluid equal to the weight of the waste fluid, but the body fluid is kept constant as a whole. Although it can be balanced, it is not possible to sequentially and accurately grasp how much each of the dialysate and the replacement fluid was actually supplied, and it is not clear how much the active ingredient in the replacement fluid has been supplemented into the patient's body. There's a problem.

In any case, in the conventional technique, it is difficult to control the flow rates of the dialysate, the replacement fluid, and the waste fluid in the continuous blood purification therapy, and if the observer is not always clinging to this,
There was a great fluctuation in the patient, and not only the features of continuous blood purification therapy that could not be achieved at all could be exerted, but also the patient could be put in a serious condition. Therefore,
In carrying out reliable flow rate adjustment, that is, the present therapy, the advent of a device for highly reliable automatic adjustment so that the actual flow rate approaches a preset set flow rate value has been desired.

Dialysate flow rate; rotating dialysate pump 5,
The clamps 13 and 14 are opened. Dialysate circuit is dialysate circuit 2
Simultaneously with being sent to 6, the dialysate flows into the measuring container 6 due to the height difference between the liquid surface of the dialysate container and the liquid surface in the measuring container. When the liquid level reaches the upper dialysate level sensor 9c, the clamp 13 is opened and the clamp 14 is closed, and the liquid in the measuring container flows out of the container and is sent to the dialysate pump side. The liquid level in the measuring container is the lower dialysate level sensor 9c.
After passing through, the clamp 14 is opened and the clamp 13 is closed, so that the dialysate delivery is continued. After a predetermined time, when the clamp 13 is opened, the dialysate again flows into the container, and when the liquid level passes through the upper dialysate level sensor 9c, the clamp 13 is opened and the clamp 14 is closed, so that the liquid is removed from the container. leak. Such an operation is repeated every predetermined time. The time T 1 required for the liquid to flow out from the measuring container is measured as the time required for the liquid surface to pass through the upper dialysate level sensor 9c and the lower dialysate level sensor 9b. Since the dialysate measuring container 6 is manufactured by a plastic molding die and it has been confirmed in advance that there is almost no error, the dialysate measuring container 6 has a constant volume V 1 and the dialysate flow rate L 1 flowing through the dialysate pump 5.
Is L 1 = V 1 / T 1 . When the dialysate flow rate L 1 is lower than the set value, the rotational speed of the pump 5 is increased, and when it is high, the rotational speed of the pump 5 is decreased to control the flow rate to be closer to the set value. When the predetermined time is short and the measurement is to be performed again immediately after the outflow of the liquid, it is possible to repeat without closing the clamp 13.

Waste liquid flow rate: When the waste liquid pump 3 is rotated to open the clamp 17 and close the clamp 18, the waste liquid flows into the waste liquid measuring container 8. Liquid level is lower waste liquid level sensor 1
After passing through 1a and reaching the upper waste liquid level sensor 11b, the clamp 17 is opened and the clamp 18 is opened, and the waste liquid in the waste liquid measuring container 8 flows out of the container due to the height difference. After a predetermined time, when the clamp 18 is closed, the waste liquid again flows into the measuring container 8, and when the liquid level passes through the lower waste liquid level sensor 11a and reaches the upper waste liquid level sensor 11b, the clamp 18 is opened and the measuring container is closed. Waste liquid flows out from the container. Such an operation is repeated every predetermined time. The time T 2 required to flow into the measuring container is measured as the time required for the liquid surface to pass through the lower waste liquid level sensor 11a and reach the upper waste liquid level sensor 11b. Since it has been confirmed in advance that the measuring container 8 is manufactured by a plastic molding die and has almost no error, the measuring container 8 has a constant volume V 2 , and the waste liquid flow rate L 2 flowing through the waste liquid pump 3 is L 2 = V 2 / T 2. Is. When the flow rate L 2 is lower than the set value, the rotation speed of the waste liquid pump 3 is increased, and when the flow rate L 2 is higher than the set value, the rotation speed of the waste liquid pump 3 is decreased so that the flow rate becomes closer to the set value.

Replenisher flow rate: The replenisher pump 4 is rotated to open the clamps 15 and 16. At the same time that the replacement fluid is sent to the replacement fluid circuit 28 by the pump, the replacement fluid flows into the replacement fluid measuring container 7 due to the difference in height between the liquid surface of the replacement fluid container and the liquid surface in the replacement fluid measuring container 7. When the liquid level reaches the upper replacement fluid level sensor 10c, the clamp 15 is opened and the clamp 16 is closed, and the liquid in the replacement fluid measuring container flows out of the container and is sent to the replacement fluid pump 4. When the liquid level in the replacement fluid measuring container passes through the lower replacement fluid level sensor 10b, the clamp 16 is opened and the clamp 15 is closed, so that the delivery of the replacement fluid is continued. After a predetermined time, the clamps 15 and 16 are opened, the replacement fluid flows into the replacement fluid measuring container 7 again, and the liquid level becomes the upper replacement fluid level sensor 1.
After passing 0c, the clamp 15 is opened and the clamp 16 is closed, so that the liquid flows out from the replacement fluid container. Such an operation is repeated every predetermined time. The time T 3 required for the outflow of the replacement fluid from the replacement fluid measuring container 7 is measured as the time until the liquid surface passes through the replacement fluid level sensor 10c in the upper portion and the replacement fluid level sensor 10b in the lower portion. Replacement fluid measuring container 7
Since it was manufactured by a plastic mold and it was confirmed in advance that there was almost no error, it had a constant volume V 3 , and the replacement fluid flow rate L 3 flowing through the replacement fluid pump 4 was L 3 = V 3 / T 3 . When the flow rate L 3 is lower than the set value, the rotational speed of the replacement fluid pump 4 is increased, and when the flow rate L 3 is high, the rotational speed of the pump 4 is decreased so that the flow rate is controlled to be closer to the set value. When the predetermined time is short and the measurement is performed again immediately after the outflow of the liquid, the clamp 15 can be repeated without closing.
