CA 2396851

A dual-stage filtration system and methods for using the same include first and second filtration cartridges (122, 138) particularly suited for hemodiafiltration and/or hemodialysis. As fluid enters the first filtration cartridge (122), the hydrogen ion concentration (pH) is reduced by exposing it to an acidic solution such as citric acid across a filter membrane (124). This stage allows for improved removal of certain toxins in the fluid, such as protein-bound substances that disassociate more readily from proteins at a lower pH. As the filtered fluid enters the second filtration cartridge (138), the pH of the fluid is restored to normal levels prior to infusion to a patient. Image

Cette invention se rapporte à un système de filtration à deux étages et à des procédés d'utilisation de ce système, dans lequel on emploie une première et une seconde cartouche de filtration (122, 138) particulièrement adaptées pour l'hémodiafiltration et/ou l'hémodialyse. Lorsque le fluide pénètre dans la première cartouche de filtration (122), la concentration d'ions hydrogène (pH) est réduite par exposition du fluide à une solution acide, telle que de l'acide citrique, à travers une membrane filtrante (124). Cet étage permet une meilleure élimination de certaines toxines dans le fluide, telles que les substances liées aux protéines qui se dissocient plus facilement des protéines à un pH inférieur. A mesure que le fluide filtré pénètre dans la seconde cartouche de filtration (138), le pH du fluide est rétabli à des niveaux normaux, avant l'injection du fluide dans le corps du patient.
