Abstract:
A hemodialyzing unit comprising a dialytic fluid supply line for feeding a dialytic fluid from a dialytic fluid supply/discharge unit to a dialyzer, a dialytic fluid discharge line for feeding a dialytic fluid discharged from the dialyzer to the dialytic fluid supply/discharge unit, and a bypass line for connecting both the lines at an intermediate portion of each,wherein the dialytic fluid supply line includes an upstream supply line extending from the dialytic fluid supply/discharge unit to a coupling portion to the bypass line and a downstream supply line extending from the coupling portion to the bypass line to the dialyzer, the dialytic fluid discharge Line includes an upstream discharge line extending from the dialyzer to the coupling portion to the bypass line and a downstream discharge line extending from the coupling portion to the bypass line to the dialytic fluid supply/discharge unit, a flow rate adjusting member is provided from the downstream supply line, and complementary connector pairs are provided for the upstream supply line, the downstream discharge line, the downstream supply line extending from an attachment portion of the flow rate adjustment member to the dialyzer and the upstream discharge line, respectively, whereby the respective lines are capable of being disconnected/reconnected at the complementary connector pair.
