An automatic means and method for preventing and/or treating hypotension in hemodialysis patients. To this end, a system is provided wherein the patient or healthcare practitioner can cause the hemodialysis machine to automatically deliver sodium to the patient through the dialysate so as to increase blood and extracellular osmolarity, increase blood volume from vascular refilling, and raise blood pressure. This would thereby alleviate any clinical symptoms caused by hypotension during hemodialysis.
Un procédé et un appareil automatique permettent de prévenir et/ou de traiter l'hypotension chez des patients subissant une hémodialyse. A cet effet, un système permet au patient ou au personnel soignant d'amener la machine d'hémodialyse à administrer automatiquement du sodium au patient dans le produit de dialyse afin d'augmenter l'osmose sanguine et extracellulaire, d'augmenter le volume de sang en remplissant à nouveau les vaisseaux et d'augmenter la pression sanguine, de façon à soulager tous les symptômes cliniques provoqués par l'hypotension pendant l'hémodialyse.
