Preparation on a dialysis apparatus of the necessary bicarbonate solution for bicarbonate dialysis

摘要

Method for the preparation on a dialysis apparatus (10) of the necessary bicarbonate solution for bicarbonate haemodialysis. A calculated amount of a solid bicarbonate composition (6) present in a container (20) is dissolved with purified water to give a saturated solution which is removed by the dialysis apparatus (10) as and when required from the container (20). During dialysis the container (20) is continuously replenished with purified water up to a restricted amount and the bicarbonate composition is continuously dissolved until the solution is saturated.
