SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATED ASSESSMENT OF PERITONEAL MEMBRANE FUNCTION, RESIDUAL CAVITY VOLUME, AND PERITONEAL ADEQUACY

Abstract: this disclosure teaches methods and systems for determining membrane transport parameters of a peritoneal dialysis (pd) patient, and updating a (pd) prescription of the patient based on one or more of the membrane transport parameters. the methods include withdrawing a plurality of samples of pd effluent from the patient's peritoneal cavity periodically during one or more dwell phases of one or more pd treatment cycles. the method further includes obtaining sensor measurements of the samples of pd effluent, determining one or more peritoneal membrane transport parameters based on the sensor measurements, and updating the patient's pd prescription, to be used for a later peritoneal dialysis treatment, based on the one or more peritoneal membrane transport parameters.
