A method of monitoring a dialysis unit is provided herein. The method includes the first step of acquiring and storing set values for a plurality of parameters relating to the treatment to be carried out. The parameters include the infusion rate of a solution containing bicarbonate (HCO3-). The method then includes the step of calculating a clinical prescription of the concentration, in blood, of bicarbonate ([HCO3-]b), which will result from a treatment based on the stored values of the parameters. The clinical prescription is calculated using a mathematical model of the relationship between the treatment parameters and the clinical prescription ([HCO3-]b). The method then includes the step of comparing, during the treatment, set values of the parameters with initially stored set values of the parameters. The method then includes the step of determining suggested values for one of the parameters so as to maintain the clinical prescription ([HCO3-]b) unchanged. If any variation is detected between the set values of the parameters and the initially stored set value of the parameter, the method then includes the step of determining any change in the clinical prescription ([HCO3-]b) resulting from the change in the set values of the parameter. The method then includes the step of generating an alarm signal when a variation in the clinical prescription ([HCO3-]b) is detected. The method then includes the final step of displaying the suggested value.
