Abstract:
Systems and methods for cleaning and disinfecting a medical therapy device that delivers any one of hemodialysis, hemodiafiltration and hemofiltration. The system has a base module that has at least one segment of a controlled compliant flow path and at least one pair of jumpered ports configured on the base module. One or more components have connections connectable to the jumpered ports of the base module to provide for fluid communication between the segment of the controlled compliant flow path in the base module and a flow path defined by the one or more components. The base module is connected to the one or more components that define a flow path configurable for carrying out in part at least one function performed during any one of hemodialysis, hemodiafiltration or hemofiltration.

Claim (Index 72):
The system of  claim 71 , wherein the system comprises at least one of the following:\n a) the second segment, the seventh segment and the eighth segment; and wherein bi-directional operation of the pump of the seventh segment of the flow path in coordination with the pumps of the second and eighth segments causes fluid to move bi-directionally between the flow path and the extracorporeal flow path, wherein a flux of fluid moving between the extracorporeal flow path and a subject receiving a treatment is determined by the relationship:\n Patient Fluid Balance+Control Pump+Water Pump+Concentrate Pump+\u03a3 i=0 n X i =0 \n where a positive value for any term is a flux of fluid entering the flow path and the Patient Fluid Balance is the flux of fluid moving from the extracorporeal flow path and the subject; where X is a volumetric pumping rate of a pump where n can range from 0 to 20; b) the second segment, the seventh segment the eighth segment, and the fifteenth segment; and wherein bi-directional operation of the pump of the seventh segment of the flow path in coordination with the pumps of the second, eighth and fifteenth segments causes fluid to move bi-directionally between the flow path and the extracorporeal flow path, wherein a flux of fluid moving between the extracorporeal flow path and a subject receiving a treatment is determined by to the relationship:\n Patient Fluid Balance+Control Pump+Water Pump+Concentrate Pump+Replacement Fluid Pump+\u03a3 i=0 n X i =0 \n wherein a positive value for any term is a flux of fluid entering the flow path and the Patient Fluid Balance is the flux of fluid moving from the extracorporeal flow path and the subject; where X is a volumetric pumping rate of a pump where n can range from 0 to 20; c) the fourth segment or the sixth segment; and wherein the fourth segment or the sixth segment forms part of the flow path; d) the sixth segment; and wherein the sixth segment further comprises a flow restriction to restrict fluid flow through the sixth segment such that a positive to atmosphere pressure is maintained in a liquid containing compartment of the degassing module; e) the third segment and the fifth segment; and wherein fluid passes from the third segment to the fifth segment; f) the seventh segment and at least one of the fifth segment and the sixth segment; and wherein fluid may pass from either the fifth segment or sixth segment to the seventh segment; g) the fourth segment and at least one of the first segment, the second segment, the third segment, the fourth segment, the sixth segment, the seventh segment, the eighth segment, and the ninth segment; and wherein fluid passes first from the fourth segment to the first, second, third, sixth, seventh eighth, or ninth segment, and combinations thereof; h) the fourth segment, and at least one of the first segment, the second segment, the third segment, the sixth segment, the seventh segment, the eighth segment, and the ninth segment; and wherein fluid enters the fourth segment from any one of the first, second, third, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth segments, and combinations thereof; i) at least one of the tenth segment, the eleventh segment, and the twelfth segment; and wherein any one of the tenth, eleventh, or twelfth segments further comprises a valve controlling flow through the segment; j) at least one of the tenth segment, the eleventh segment, and the twelfth segment; and wherein the cleaning manifold comprises any one of the tenth, eleventh, twelfth segments and combinations thereof; and k) combinations thereof.
