  • the auxihary control regulates the pump rate by producing an electrical pulse train in which the duration of the pulses corresponds to changes in negative pressure corresponding to changes in the blood flow 128/214 F, 214.2, DIG. l2, DIG. 13; 417/44 56 References Cited 7 1 rate.

  • the present invention relates to an improved auxiliary control for an extracorporeal blood pump used in hemodialysis and more particularly to novel apparatus for controlling the blood pump rate in an extracorporeal hemodialysis system.
  • kidney diseases have been of critical concern to human life. Many kinds of kidney diseases interfere with the function of the kidney such that the kidney ceases to remove waste and excess water from the blood. When the kidney is sufficiently impaired that a large portion of the waste products and water are not removed from the blood, the life of the patient cannot be preserved unless a way is provided for artificially performing the functions of the impaired kidney through extracorporeal hemodialysis.
  • pump starvation The collapse of blood lines resulting from insufficient blood supply to a continuously operating blood pump is defined herein as pump starvation.”
  • pump starvation To avoid time consuming and sometimes dangerous pump starvation, it has conventionally been necessary to adjust the pump speed well below an optimum rate to a level which pro vides a wide safety margin in order to avoid pump starvation.
  • the attending physician must choose between (a) lowering the pump rate to accommodate the lowest possible blood flow rate as a safety margin and thereby significantly extending the dialysis time or (b) risk collapse of blood lines and premature interruption of dialysis through pump starvation in the event of a drop in the patients blood flow rate.
  • the present invention includes novel apparatus for continuously varying the pump rate of a blood pump used in hemodialysis in response to changes in blood flow from the patient so as to maximize the rate of hemodialysis while avoiding pump starvation. Furthermore, the invention provides apparatus which can accomplish the previously described function in combination with existing conventional blood pumps and control mechanisms.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a presently preferred embodiment of the invention
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a waveform taken at point A in FIG. 1, the waveform particularly showing a signal representation when the patients blood flow has increased during the course of dialysis;
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a waveform taken at point A of FIG. 1, the waveform particularly showing a signal representation when the patients blood flow has decreased during the course of dialysis.
  • a conventional pressure transducer 22 provides a direct conversion between negative pressure in the blood line 24 and electrical voltage.
  • Blood line 24 connects the pressure transducer to a conduit (not shown) which carries blood from a blood vessel of a patient to the blood pump 37.
  • the electrical qualities of the pressure transducer may be characterized as either a variable resistance or a variable voltage source. Whichever type of transducer is employed or whichever electrical characterization is used, the electrical quantity varies in proportion to the blood flow as measured by the negative blood pressure in line 24.
  • the negative pressure is preferably observable on a conventional readout device 23.
  • the electrical output signal of the pressure transducer is fed into an averaging circuit 28.
  • the averaging circuit 28 may be any one of a wide variety of known discrete or integrated circuits, the most simplified of which would merely be a capacitor in parallel with the transducer output conductors to accomplish averaging of the systolic and diastolic pressure signal from the transducer 22.
  • the averaged transducer signal is then conducted to and appears at one of the inputs to a conventional operational amplifier 31 which forms part of the comparator 30.
  • the initial reference control 32 provides a reference signal for the second comparing input of the operational amplifier 31.
  • the initial reference control may be either a fixed or variable voltage divider which provides a pre-established signal level at one of at least two operational amplifier inputs.
  • the operational amplifier portion 31 of the comparator 30 is used in the summing mode, where the two inputs are added together to form an output to the electr nic switch 36 which output is proportional to the sum of the inputs.
  • the electronic switch 36 preferably comprises a conventional threshold trigger circuit capable of converting the output signal of the operational amplifier 31 into a pulse of duration proportional to the amplitude of the output signal of the operational amplifier.
  • a common, readily available device for performing the function of the electronic switch would be any suitable type of current controlled current source such as a unijunction transistor with an external base to emitter timing capacitance which acts to fire a triac or the like.
  • the power supply for the operational amplifier portion of the comparator is a pulse generator 34 which produces a generally square wave voltage signal causing the output of the operational amplifier to turn on and off at a constant rate. Any suitable conventional pulse generator having sufficient voltage output to drive the operational amplifier would be acceptable.
  • the signal from the operational amplifier is a periodic pulse having an amplitude proportional to the sum of the initial reference signal and the averaged transducer signal. It should be recognized that the higher the output signal from the comparator, the greater the time increment that switch 36 is on, and conversely the lower the signal from the comparator, the shorter the time increment that switch 36 is on.
  • the regular power supply line to a conventional blood pump and controller is diverted through the electronic switch 36.
  • the waveforms shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 are taken at point A in the diagram of FIG. 1, assuming an alternating current power supply like that available at a standard utility outlet.
  • the solid portions of the waveforms represent that portion of the waveforms during which the electronic switch 36 is off.
  • the switch 36 turns on, it remains on until the AC cycle goes through zero.
  • the switch 36 is open or off through most of the AC cycle in FIG. 3
  • the energy delivered from the pump power supply 35 to the pump controller 39 is compara tively small.
  • the blood pump 37 operates slowly.
  • the switch 36 is on through most of the AC cycle (see FIG. 2), the energy delivered to the controller 39 is comparatively high and the blood pump 37 will operate comparatively rapidly.
  • the existing conventional blood pump controller remains useful for the purpose of setting upper limits in the speed of the blood pump.
  • the invention 20 provides for immediate and continuous compensation of the speed of the blood pump in response to changes in the patients blood flow.
  • the output of the comparator 30 is reduced and therefore the electronic switch 36 allows a smaller proportion of the pump power supply signal to be conducted to the blood pump (see FIG. 3).
  • the amount of power supplied to the blood pump increases thereby increasing the speed of the pump (see FIG. 2). Accordingly, pump starvation caused by a vacuum-induced collapse of blood lines and blood vessels will be avoided because the pump 37 will operate only at the maximum rate accommodated by the available blood supply.
  • the patient is connected to the dialyzer in a method well-known in the art, the supply line 24 being normally in direct communication with the dialyzer blood circuit upstream from the pump.
  • the auxiliary control 20 is first switched off so as to have no effect on power delivered from the supply 35 to the pump controller 39.
  • the auxiliary control 20 may remain on but the initial reference control 32 adjusted to the maximum so as not to interfere with the selection of a desirable maximum flow rate at the controller 39.
  • the blood pump 37 is energized and the speed of the blood pump is increased by adjusting the pump controller 39 to the desired maximum blood flow.
  • the desired maximum blood flow may be ascertained by observing the negative pressure read-out 23 and increasing the speed ofthe blood pump until the negative pressure reaches a level prescribed by the attending physician.
  • the maximum desired flow can be obtained by increasing the pump speed until the blood line or associated accumulator collapses and then reducing the speed of the blood pump 37 through the controller 39 slightly until full flow results.
  • the auxiliary controller 20 is activated by adjusting the initial reference control 32 at least until it appears from the negative pressure readout 23 that the auxiliary control 20 is monitoring blood flow at essentially the maximum desired rate set by the pump controller 39. It has been found frequently desir able to set the initial reference control on a specific negative pressure reading representing a desirable blood flow rate.
  • the auxiliary control When the initial reference control has been set, the auxiliary control will continuously vary the blood pump speed so as to maintain the negative pressure reading at the preset level. Thus, if the patients blood flow reduces, the auxiliary control 20 will reduce the speed of the blood pump 37 so that the negative pressure reading will not significantly change. Conversely, if the patients blood flow increases, the auxiliary control 20 will increase the speed of the blood pump and prevent the negative pressure level from changing significantly.
  • the most advantageous physical housing for the invention has been found to be an enclosure (not shown) which provides an electrical outlet for the service plug of the conventional blood pump and controller, a meter for reflecting the negative pressure, and a dial plate and dial for setting the initial reference control.
  • an enclosure not shown
  • various power switches, pilot lights, or other indicators may be used in order to monitor the status of the circuit during operation.
  • a blood pump controller responsive to changes in blood flow comprising:
  • a conventional blood pump for displacing blood through an extracorporeal hemodialysis system including a blood-conducting conduit;
  • said means comprising an attachment site means for detachably coupling the blood pump to the power source through the said means; sensing means in said bloodconducting conduit for monitoring the availability of extracorporeal blood to the pump upstream from the pump; and means responsive to the sensing means for selectively and continuously varying the amount of electrical power delivered to the blood pump from the power source thereby continuously varying the pumping flow rate of the blood pump, the magnitude of pumping variation being constantly proportional to extracorporeal blood flow upstream from the blood pump during the course of dialysis.
  • a blood pump controller responsive to changes in blood flow comprising:
  • a blood conduit for conducting blood from a patient to the blood pump
  • transducer means connected to the blood conduit producing an electrical signal representing the availability of blood to the pump
  • comparing means for comparing the transducer signal with a pre-established reference signal and producing a proportional output signal
  • switching means responsive to the output of the comparing means for producing a periodic pulse train wherein the duration of each pulse is proproportional to the output signal of the comparing means, the speed of the blood pump being a direct function of the duration of the pulse.
  • a blood pump controller as defined in claim 2 further comprising means for sensing negative blood pressure upstream from the pump and wherein the switching means comprises means for (a) producing a medium duration pulse when the proportional output signal is at an initial reference level representing a predetermined negative blood pressure, (b) decreasing the pulse duration when the proportional output signal indicates reduced patients blood flow represented by increased negative value of the blood pressure, and (c) increasing the pulse duration when the proportional output signal indicates increased patients blood flow represented by decreased negative value of the blood pressure.
