Embodiment Construction

[0016] According to one or more embodiments of the present invention, a self-warming peritoneal dialysis fluid bag is provided. The bag contains peritoneal dialysis fluid and has a non-electrical warming block attached to the outer surface of the bag. Non-electric warming blocks are capable of holding, containing or including an activator that undergoes an exothermic reaction upon activation. The warming block is capable of holding a sufficient amount of activator that upon activation generates sufficient heat to warm the contents of the bag to at least 95°F. The contents of the bag can include a sufficient amount of peritoneal dialysis fluid for peritoneal dialysis treatment for the user. The warming block can include a removable protective covering that prevents activation of the activator until the removable protective covering is removed. Removable protective coverings may include adhesive release liners, sealants, frangible members, and the like. A removable protective...

Abstract

A self-warming peritoneal dialysis solution bag (20) is provided that contains a peritoneal dialysis solution. The solution bag (20) can have an outer surface and a non-electric, warming patch (32, 34) adhered or affixed to the outer surface. The non-electric, warming patch (32, 34) can include an activatable agent that undergoes an exothermic reaction when activated. The warming patch (32, 34) can retain a sufficient amount of activatable agent to generate enough heat, upon activation, to warm the contents of the bag (20) to at least 95 Fahrenheit degrees. Warming patches that are separate from a peritoneal dialysis solution bag are also provided, as are kits for warming a peritoneal dialysis solution bag. Methods of warming a peritoneal dialysis solution bag with a non-electric, warming patch, are also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] It is an object of the present invention to be able to heat the dialysate within the bag itself and eliminate the need for an external power / heating source. This is achieved with a bag-mounted air-activated layer that will heat the dialysate through an exothermic chemical reaction (via iron oxidation). Background technique [0002] Typically, the patient and / or clinician use an electric heating pad and cooler to heat the dialysate to the necessary 98.6°F prior to passing the dialysate into the patient's peritoneal cavity (see FMC Clinical Services Procedure FMS-CS-HT- I-215-070C attachment). The bag typically holds 1500 ml of solution and has rough dimensions of 8.00 inches wide, 11.00 inches long, and 1.50 inches thick. Prior art systems for patients requiring hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis involve pumping large volumes of dialysate through a dialysis device. In these prior art devices, the used dialysate is then discarded. [0003] By now, t...
