Patent ID: 6889104

Claim:
A method of configuring a blood circuit for medical application, the blood circuit being configured by forming a blood circuit system in which a blood circuit is divided into a plurality of unit sections and a plurality of selectable unit components are prepared for at least one unit section, selecting at least one unit component from each unit section based on the formed blood circuit system; and combining the selected unit components; the method comprising: using a blood circuit system database in which data with respect to the unit sections and the unit components contained in the blood circuit system are stored, inputting set conditions including a price with respect to the blood circuit to be configured to the computer, extracting a predetermined range of candidates of the combinations of the unit components from the blood circuit system database by the computer based on the degree of compliance with the input set conditions, displaying a list of the candidates of the combinations of the extracted unit components on a display, inputting a selected assignment of one combination selected from the candidates of the displayed combinations to the computer, and displaying an assembly drawing of an entire configuration of the blood circuit obtained by combining the selected unit components and at least one of a full length of the blood circuit or an amount of filled blood on the display in accordance with the input of the selected assignment by the use of the blood circuit system database.
