BLOOD MONITORING SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING A CALIBRATED HEMOGLOBIN CONCENTRATION VALUE FOR A PATIENT BASED ON PATIENT-SPECIFIC MEAN CORPUSCULAR HEMOGLOBIN CONCENTRATION DATA

摘要

A hemodialysis system includes a hemodialysis machine and a blood monitoring system. The hemodialysis machine is configured to provide hemodialysis treatment to a patient, wherein the hemodialysis treatment includes circulating extracorporeal blood of the patient through an extracorporeal blood circuit. The blood monitoring system includes: a sensor device configured to measure a hematocrit value corresponding to the extracorporeal blood of the patient in the extracorporeal blood circuit; and at least one controller. The blood monitoring system is configured to communicate with an electronic health records (EHR) system over a communications network to obtain patient-specific mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) data for the patient. The at least one controller is configured to determine a hemoglobin concentration value corresponding to the extracorporeal blood for the patient in the extracorporeal blood circuit using the measured hematocrit value and the patient-specific MCHC data for the patient.
