DIALYSIS SYSTEM INCLUDING WIRELESS PATIENT DATA
First Claim
1. A dialysis system comprising:
- a dialysis machine configured toperform a prescribed dialysis treatment on a patient,generate ultrafiltration (“
UF”
) removed data over the prescribed dialysis treatment performed by the dialysis machine, andtransmit the UF removed data; and
a receiver coded with at least one of an address or a personal identification number (“
PIN”
), the receiver configured to receive at least one of blood pressure data from a blood pressure monitor once per treatment performed by the dialysis machine or patient weight data from a weight scale wirelessly once per treatment performed by the dialysis machine,wherein the at least one coded address or PIN ensures that the at least one of the blood pressure data or the patient weight data is received by the receiver as opposed to another receiver, andwherein the UF removed data and at least one of the blood pressure data or the patient weight data is transmitted via a network.

Abstract
An example dialysis system includes a dialysis machine and a receiver coded with at least one of an address or a personal identification number (“PIN”). The dialysis machine is configured to perform a prescribed dialysis treatment on a patient, generate ultrafiltration (“UF”) removed data over the prescribed dialysis treatment performed by the dialysis machine, and transmit the UF removed data. The example receiver is configured to receive at least one of blood pressure data from a blood pressure monitor or patient weight data from a weight scale. The at least one coded address or PIN ensures that the at least one of the blood pressure data or the patient weight data is received by the receiver as opposed to another receiver.

10. A dialysis system comprising:
-
at least one of a blood pressure monitor configured to transmit blood pressure data or a weight scale configured to transmit patient weight data; and a dialysis machine in communication with the at least one of the blood pressure monitor or the weight scale, the dialysis machine configured to perform a dialysis treatment on a patient, receive the at least one of the blood pressure data from the blood pressure monitor or the patient weight data from the weight scale, generate ultrafiltration (“
UF”
) removed data over the dialysis treatment, andsend the UF removed data and the at least one of the blood pressure data or the patient weight data to a processor that is communicatively coupled to the dialysis machine. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A dialysis system comprising:
-
a dialysis machine configured to perform a prescribed dialysis treatment on a patient, generate ultrafiltration (“
UF”
) removed data over the prescribed dialysis treatment, andtransmit the UF removed data; at least one of a blood pressure monitor configured to wirelessly transmit blood pressure data or a weight scale configured to wirelessly transmit patient weight data; and a receiver coded with at least one of an address or a personal identification number (“
PIN”
), the receiver configured to receive at least one of the blood pressure data from the blood pressure monitor once per treatment performed by the dialysis machine or patient weight data from the weight scale wirelessly once per treatment performed by the dialysis machine;wherein the at least one coded address or PIN ensures that the at least one of the blood pressure data or the patient weight data is received by the receiver as opposed to another receiver, and wherein the UF removed data and at least one of the blood pressure data or the patient weight data is transmitted via a network. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22)
