ABSTRACT:
A blood flow system for processing blood has two phases of operation, an arterial phase and a venous phase. During the arterial phase, the system is filled with blood through operation of an arterial blood pump. When a predetermined blood pressure level in the system has been attained, the arterial blood pump is inactivated and a venous blood pump removes blood from the system for a given number of pump turns. By accurately monitoring both arterial and venous pumps operating cycles, ultrafiltration volume and rate may be determined.
