[0020] See also Figure 1 The portable automated blood purification system includes an artificial kidney unit, an artificial liver unit, a flushing unit, a weighing unit, a blood inlet tube 101, a blood outlet tube 102 and an artificial lung unit.

[0021] The artificial kidney unit includes a first peristaltic pump 128 , a second peristaltic pump 142 , a first dialyzer 104 , a fourth peristaltic pump 108 , an anticoagulant container 123 , and a syringe pump 122 .

[0022] The inlet of the first peristaltic pump 128 of the artificial kidney unit is connected in series with the blood inlet tube 101; the inlet of the second peristaltic pump 142 is connected to the replacement supplement tank 125 through the first weighing sensor 118, and the first weighing sensor 118 is also connected to one end of the first perfusion backwash tube 107 and one end of the second perfusion backwash tube 105 respectively; the other end of the first perfusion backwash tube 107 is connected to the blood outlet tube 102 through the fourth optional switch 1212 and the three-way tube connected in series; the other end of the second perfusion backwash tube 105 is connected to the blood inlet tube 103 through the third optional switch 1208 and the three-way tube connected in series.

[0023] The inlet of the syringe pump 122 is connected in series with the anticoagulant container 123 .

[0024] The outlet of the first peristaltic pump 128, the outlet of the second peristaltic pump 142 and the outlet of the injection pump 122 are connected to the inlet of the first compartment 148 of the first dialyzer 104 through a four-way tube; the outlet of the first compartment 148 of the first dialyzer 104 is connected to the blood outlet tube 102 through the first optional switch 820, the second optional switch 821 and the bubble eliminator 134 connected in series.

[0025] The inlet of the fourth peristaltic pump 108 is connected to the first outlet of the second compartment 150 of the first dialyzer 104 , and the outlet of the fourth peristaltic pump 108 is connected to the first load cell 118 or the second load cell 116 via the fifth selectable switch 1204 .

[0026] The artificial liver unit includes a second dialyzer 802 , and also includes a blood perfusion device 808 , an albumin storage container 812 , and a third peristaltic pump 810 connected in series with the second dialyzer 802 to form a loop.

[0027] The flushing unit includes a third weighing sensor 114 , a first irrigation backwashing tube 107 , and a second irrigation backwashing tube 105 .

[0028] The weighing unit includes a first load cell 118 and a second load cell 120 .

[0029] The artificial lung unit includes an oxygen container 902, which is a bubbling oxygenator. The inlet and outlet of the oxygen container 902 are connected in parallel to the second outlet of the second compartment 150 of the first dialyzer 104 and the inlet of the second peristaltic pump 142 through switches, respectively. The specific structure is as follows: the first switch 911 is connected in series between the second outlet of the second compartment 150 of the first dialyzer 104 and the outlet of the oxygen container 902, and the second switch 910 is connected in series between the inlet of the second peristaltic pump 142 and the inlet of the oxygen container 902.

[0030] The first switch 911 and the second switch 910 are both two-input and one-output switching valves.

[0031] The detailed description of each workflow of the present invention is as follows: 1. Artificial kidney unit workflow (main function) See also Figure 2 , place the first optional switch 820 in position "A", the second optional switch 821 in position "A", the third optional switch 1208 in position "B", the fourth optional switch 1212 in position "A", and the fifth optional switch 1204 in position "B", and disconnect the first switch 911 and the second switch 910.

[0032] At this time, the system is driven by the first peristaltic pump 128, and the blood drawn from the patient's vein enters through the blood inlet tube 103 in sequence through the fourth temperature and pressure sensor 124 (and the weight of the blood is weighed by the third weighing sensor 114 at the same time), the second bubble detection sensor 126, and the first peristaltic pump 128, and enters the first dialyzer 104 through the first temperature and pressure sensor 144, flows out after passing through the first compartment 148 divided by the dialysis membrane 106 of the first dialyzer 104, passes through the second temperature and pressure sensor 136, and then passes through the first optional switch 820, the second optional switch 821, the bubble eliminator 134, the first bubble detection sensor 132, and the tube clamping solenoid valve 130 (which is in the on state at this time), so that the blood returns to the patient's artery through the blood outlet tube 102.

[0033] When the blood enters the first dialyzer 104, the dialysis membrane 106 will filter out part of the blood, which is driven by the fourth peristaltic pump 108, passes through the third temperature and pressure sensor 140, the blood leakage detection sensor 138, and the fourth peristaltic pump 108, and is weighed by the second weighing sensor 116 before being discarded.

[0034] When the blood enters the first temperature and pressure sensor 144 through the first peristaltic pump 128, the syringe pump 122 can add the anticoagulant in the anticoagulation container 123 to the blood. At the same time, driven by the second peristaltic pump 142, the dialysate in the replacement supplement tank 125 is heated by the medical fluid heater 120, weighed by the first weighing sensor 118, and then injected into the blood of the first dialyzer 104 through the pipeline 110 by the second peristaltic pump 142.

[0035] 2. Artificial liver unit workflow (optional function) See also Figure 3 The artificial liver unit is based on the artificial kidney unit, with the first optional switch 820 placed in position "B" and the second optional switch 821 placed in position "B". The blood flowing out of the first dialyzer 104 flows into the second dialyzer 802 through the second temperature and pressure sensor 136, flows out through the first compartment 804 separated by the second dialyzer membrane 818 of the second dialyzer 802, and enters the bubble eliminator 134 through the second optional switch 821; then passes through the first bubble detection sensor 132 and the clamping solenoid valve 130 (which is in the on state at this time), and then returns to the patient's artery through the blood outlet tube 102.

[0036] When the blood enters the second dialyzer 802, the second dialysis membrane 818 will filter out part of the blood, which is driven by the third peristaltic pump 810 and flows through the blood perfusion device 808 to remove non-water-soluble toxins such as bilirubin in the blood, and replenishes the albumin in the blood when flowing through the albumin storage container 812.

[0037] 3. Artificial Lung Unit Workflow (Optional Function) See also Figure 4 The artificial lung unit is based on the artificial kidney unit or the artificial liver unit, and the first switch 911 is closed and the second switch 910 is closed. When the blood enters the first dialyzer 104, the dialysis membrane 106 filters out part of the blood, passes through the oxygen container 902, and then flows back to the pipeline 110 through the second switch 910, and then the second peristaltic pump 142 drives the first temperature and pressure sensor 144 to re-inject the blood with increased oxygen content into the first dialyzer 104.

[0038] 4. Automated infusion workflow See also Figure 5 , the first optional switch 820 is placed in position "A", the second optional switch 821 is placed in position "A", the third optional switch 1208 is placed in position "B", the fourth optional switch 1212 is placed in position "A", and the fifth optional switch 1204 is placed in position "B", and the first switch 911 and the second switch 910 are disconnected. At the same time, the first peristaltic pump 128 and the second peristaltic pump 142 rotate in the opposite direction and output in the opposite direction.

[0039] The dialysate in the replacement supplement tank 125 passes through the medical fluid heater 120 (the heating function is not turned on at this time) and the first weighing sensor 118 and is divided into two paths: One of the paths passes through the first perfusion backflush tube 107, the fourth optional switch 1212, the tube clamping solenoid valve 130, the first bubble detection sensor 132, the bubble eliminator 134, and then passes through the second optional switch 821 and the first optional switch 820, the second temperature and pressure sensor 136 to enter the first dialyzer 104, and perfuse and fill the first compartment 148 and the second compartment 150 on both sides of the dialysis membrane 106 of the first dialyzer 104.

[0040] After filling the first compartment 148, the dialysate flows through the first temperature and pressure sensor 144, and then is driven by the first peristaltic pump 128, flows through the second bubble detection sensor 126, the fourth temperature and pressure sensor 124, the third optional switch 1208, the second perfusion backwash tube 105, the first weighing sensor 118, and the medical fluid heater 120, and then flows back to the replacement replenishment tank 125. After filling the first compartment 150, the dialysate is driven by the fourth peristaltic pump 108 to flow through the third temperature and pressure sensor 140, the blood leakage detector 138, and then flows back to the replacement replenishment tank 125 through the fifth optional switch 1204, the first weighing sensor 118, and the medical fluid heater 120.

[0041] The other route is driven by the second peristaltic pump 142 and directly enters the first temperature and pressure sensor 144 through the pipeline 110 .

[0042] 5. Automatic backflush workflow See also Figure 6, adjust the first peristaltic pump 128 and the second peristaltic pump 142 to rotate in opposite directions, so as to realize the main circuit and Figure 5 Cleaning pipeline process in the opposite direction.

[0043] The portable automated blood purification system of the present invention is a portable box-shaped complete machine, the dimensions of which are less than 55 cm×40 cm×20 cm, and the weight of which is less than 12 kg.
