Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of peritoneal dialysis, and in particular to a wearable biomechanical artificial kidney peritoneal dialysis device. Background Art
[0002] Peritoneal dialysis is a dialysis treatment method used to replace kidney function. The treatment injects sterile, heat-free dialysate into the patient's peritoneal cavity. The peritoneum acts as a natural semipermeable membrane, and uremic toxins and various ions diffuse from the patient's bloodstream through the peritoneum into the peritoneal dialysis fluid via an osmotic gradient. The existing peritoneal dialysis process requires a large amount of peritoneal dialysis fluid. According to the conventional peritoneal dialysis, 4 replacements per day, 2L each time, the daily peritoneal dialysis fluid usage is 8L, which brings a serious burden to peritoneal dialysis patients and seriously affects the quality of life, learning and work convenience of patients.
[0003] The wearable peritoneal dialysis equipment with patented designs removes known toxins such as urea from the replaced peritoneal dialysis fluid through enzymes, adsorption, filtration membranes and other modes, but has the following shortcomings: 1. It can only remove some of the currently identified uremic toxins in the peritoneal dialysis fluid, does not have the toxin removal capabilities of biological kidneys, and does not achieve the most effective kidney replacement; 2. The adsorbent has very limited ability and types of toxin removal in the peritoneal dialysis fluid, and the adsorber needs to be replaced regularly and frequently; 3. In addition, the existing portable peritoneal dialysis method will produce a certain amount of waste fluid, and a large amount of peritoneal dialysis fluid still needs to be supplemented during the treatment process to maintain the treatment effect; 4. The existing biological artificial kidneys such as implanted renal tubular epithelial cells are unable to enter clinical application due to technical difficulties such as cell survival, biocompatibility, energy and oxygen supply limitations that have not been overcome.

[0037] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0038] See also Figure 1 , a wearable biomechanical artificial kidney peritoneal dialysis device, comprising:
[0039] A peritoneal dialysis tube inserted into the patient's abdominal cavity 1;
[0040] A peritoneal dialysis fluid circulation unit 2, comprising a three-way pipe 21 connected to the peritoneal dialysis tube 1, a liquid inlet pipe 22 and a liquid outlet pipe 23 respectively connected to the other two ports of the three-way pipe 21, a post-filtration peritoneal dialysis fluid reservoir 24 and a pre-filtration peritoneal dialysis fluid reservoir 25 respectively connected to the other ends of the liquid inlet pipe 22 and the liquid outlet pipe 23, and a peritoneal dialysis fluid filter 3 connected between the post-filtration peritoneal dialysis fluid reservoir 24 and the pre-filtration peritoneal dialysis fluid reservoir 25, wherein two ports on the side wall of the peritoneal dialysis fluid filter 3 are respectively connected to the pre-filtration peritoneal dialysis fluid reservoir 25 and the post-filtration peritoneal dialysis fluid reservoir 24 through a first connecting pipe 31 and a second connecting pipe 32, and a blood input port 33 and a blood output port 34 are also provided on the peritoneal dialysis fluid filter 3;
[0041] The isolated active kidney circulation unit 4 has arteriovenous ends of the isolated active kidney connected to the blood input port 33 and the blood output port 34 respectively to form an isolated active kidney blood circulation filtration passage. The liquid in the isolated active kidney circulation is preferably blood or component blood containing red blood cells, or it can be a liquid containing red blood cells, or other liquids with oxygen and carbon dioxide transport capabilities.
[0042] The liquid inlet pipe 22 and the liquid outlet pipe 23 are provided with a pump 1 26 , respectively. The first connecting pipe 31 and the second connecting pipe 32 are provided with a pump 3 35 , respectively. The liquid inlet pipe 22 and the liquid outlet pipe 23 are also provided with a valve 27 .
[0043] In the present invention, when peritoneal dialysis is needed, a certain amount of peritoneal dialysis fluid (including various types of peritoneal dialysis fluid) is stored in the peritoneal dialysis fluid storage 24, the valve 27 and pump 1 26 on the inlet tube 22 are opened, and the peritoneal dialysis fluid is infused from the peritoneal dialysis tube 1 into the patient's abdomen, and then the valve 27 and pump 1 26 on the inlet tube 22 are closed, and then a period of time is waited, and the toxins in the patient's body enter the peritoneal dialysis fluid through the filtration of the peritoneum; then the valve 27 and pump 1 26 on the outlet tube 23 are opened, and the peritoneal dialysis fluid with toxins is drained out and stored in the pre-filtration peritoneal dialysis fluid storage 25, and then the pump 3 35 on the first connecting tube 31 and the second connecting tube 32 is opened, and the isolated active kidney circulation unit 4 is turned on, so that the peritoneal dialysis fluid with toxins is exchanged and removed with the blood of the isolated active kidney circulation unit through the filter 3, and finally returned to the peritoneal dialysis fluid storage 24 for storage, so as to be used for the next peritoneal dialysis fluid exchange. Finally, a circulation exchange is formed to achieve the purpose of continuous peritoneal dialysis. A large amount of peritoneal dialysis fluid is required during the existing peritoneal dialysis process. According to the conventional peritoneal dialysis, 2L is replaced four times a day, and the daily peritoneal dialysis fluid usage is 8L. The filter and the isolated active kidney circuit of the device allow the peritoneal dialysis fluid to be recycled. Patients do not need to carry a large amount of peritoneal dialysis fluid, which effectively reduces the burden on peritoneal dialysis patients and brings convenience to patients' lives, studies and work. Moreover, the method of removing toxins from the dialysate by the isolated active kidney has more advantages than the existing methods of removal through enzymes, adsorption, filtration membranes and other modes, making the device highly practical and effective, and worthy of promotion.

At present, the in vitro survival technology of the isolated active kidney 41 has been maturely applied, and xenogeneic organs can survive for a long time in vitro. The specific storage method can refer to the organ transplantation technology, which is not described in detail in the present invention. It should also be noted that the isolated active kidney circulation unit 4 of the present invention is not limited to the use of xenogeneic kidneys. Under mature technical conditions, homologous kidneys can also be used, as long as the purpose of filtering and circulating blood / liquid containing red blood cells / liquid with oxygen and carbon dioxide transport capabilities can be achieved.

Specifically, the monitoring sensor module transmits the monitored biochemical index parameters such as acid-base, ion composition, osmotic pressure to the processing module, and the processing module processes the information and transmits it to the display module for display so that the patient can view it in real time, and the processing module can compare the monitored information with its own preset value. If an abnormality occurs, the alarm module is activated to sound an alarm or automatically adjust the operating parameters of the entire system, and the alarm content that requires human intervention is prompted to the patient / medical worker.
[0047] Reference Figure 3 As shown in, the second hose 43 is also provided with an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation device 6, i.e., an oxygen / carbon dioxide exchange unit, which can provide oxygen for the isolated active kidney circulation unit 4. In the present invention, the liquid in the isolated active kidney circulation is preferably blood or component blood containing red blood cells, because it has a good oxygen transport function. Therefore, the use of the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation device 6 can be selected / adjusted according to the parameters of the oxygen content in the blood; wherein, the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation device 6 can refer to the prior art and will not be described in detail here.
[0048] In order to separate or connect the device with the peritoneal dialysis tube 1 as needed, one end of the three-way tube 21 is detachably connected to the outer port of the peritoneal dialysis tube 1. The connection method can be selected from threaded connection, which is more compact and convenient.
[0049] Preferably, the urine receiving container 45 is a urine storage bag, and the urine storage bag is detachably connected to the ureter 44, so as to facilitate replacement of the urine storage bag.
[0050] As another embodiment of urine storage, the ureter 44 is connected to the patient's bladder fistula tube to drain urine into the bladder for storage.
[0051] In order to facilitate patients to carry the device for peritoneal dialysis, a storage structure 7 with a cavity is also included, and the storage structure 7 is used to load the peritoneal dialysis fluid circulation unit 2 and the isolated active kidney circulation unit 4. The cavity in the storage structure 7 is configured to be a cavity that can stably place the peritoneal dialysis fluid circulation unit 2 and the isolated active kidney circulation unit 4, which is convenient for transportation and carrying.
