Enhanced Peritoneal Dialysis System with Integrated Features

The inventive concept relates to a peritoneal dialysis system that integrates advanced features, such as weighing scales, patient safety features, enhanced portability, advanced user interface, and integrated disinfection module, to improve the overall efficiency, safety, and user experience of peritoneal dialysis treatment.

The original patent described a peritoneal dialysis system with a peritoneal dialysis machine and an organization system. However, the system had limitations, such as inaccurate dialysate volume monitoring, potential safety risks, and cumbersome transportation. The new inventive concept addresses these limitations by incorporating innovative features that enhance the system's performance, safety, and usability.

The enhanced peritoneal dialysis system comprises at least one peritoneal dialysis machine and at least one foldable organization system. The system integrates an integrated weighing scale for accurate monitoring of the dialysate volume, automatic locking mechanisms for secure storage of solution bags and drainage bags, a transport case with retractable handles and adjustable rollers for effortless navigation, a touchscreen display for real-time monitoring and customization of treatment parameters, and a UV-C light disinfection module for reducing bacterial contamination. These features improve the overall efficiency, safety, and user experience of peritoneal dialysis treatment.

The new claims introduce novel features that significantly improve the original peritoneal dialysis system. The integration of a weighing scale, patient safety features, enhanced portability, advanced user interface, and integrated disinfection module constitutes a non-obvious inventive step that overcomes the limitations of the original patent.

Alternative embodiments of the inventive concept could include different designs for the weighing scale, varying levels of automation for the locking mechanisms, alternative materials for the transport case, and customizable user interface options. These variations would ensure broad conceptual coverage and adaptability to different user needs and preferences.

The enhanced peritoneal dialysis system has significant commercial potential in the medical device industry, particularly in the home healthcare and dialysis treatment markets. The system's advanced features and improved user experience could attract a large customer base, including patients, healthcare providers, and medical facilities.
