Peritoneal dialysis cycler having heat cleaning

1. A peritoneal dialysis (“PD”) system comprising:

a housing;

a dialysis fluid pump housed by the housing and including a reusable pump body that accepts PD fluid for pumping;

a dialysis fluid inline heater housed by the housing and including a reusable heater body that accepts PD fluid for heating;

a patient line connector presented by the housing and configured to connect to a disposable patient line, the patient line connector in combination with the disposable patient line being configured to provide PD fluid from the dialysis fluid pump to a patient for a PD treatment;

a drain line connector presented by the housing and configured to connect to a disposable drain line for the PD treatment, the drain line connector in combination with the disposable drain line being configured to provide used PD fluid from the patient to a drain for the PD treatment;

a first reusable PD fluid line extending from the housing and including a first connector configured to (i) mate with the patient line connector for a heat cleaning sequence, and (ii) mate with a first PD fluid container for the PD treatment;

a second reusable PD fluid line extending from the housing and including a second connector configured to (i) mate with the drain line connector for the heat cleaning sequence, and (ii) mate with a second PD fluid container for the PD treatment; and

a control unit configured to run the heat cleaning sequence after the PD treatment, wherein the first connector of the first reusable PD fluid line is disconnected from the first PD fluid container and mated with the patient line connector, the second connector of the second reusable PD fluid line is disconnected from the second PD fluid container and mated with the drain line connector, and the dialysis fluid pump and the dialysis fluid inline heater are actuated during the heat cleaning sequence.

2. The PD system of claim 1 , further comprising an additional connector presented by the housing, a third reusable PD fluid line extending from the housing, and a third connector configured to mate with the additional connector for the heat cleaning sequence.

3. The PD system of claim 2 , further comprising a fourth fluid line including a fourth connector configured to mate with the additional connector during the PD treatment.

4. The PD system of claim 3 , wherein the fourth fluid line is configured to be used to provide additional PD fluid for the PD treatment or is configured to be used as a location to store an effluent sample.

5. The PD system of claim 1 , further comprising the first and second PD fluid containers configured to connect to the first and second connectors, respectively.

6. The PD system of claim 1 , wherein the first and second connectors are different from each other.

7. The PD system of claim 1 , further comprising the disposable patient line configured to connect to the patient line connector and the disposable drain line configured to connect to the drain line connector.

8. The PD system of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first and second reusable PD fluid lines is provided with a lid that is opened and closed to disconnect and connect, respectively, the first connector from and to the patient line connector or the second connector from and to the drain line connector.

9. The PD system of claim 1 , wherein the control unit is configured to cause (i) the dialysis fluid inline heater to heat the PD fluid accepted by the reusable heater body to at least 70° C. or at least 120° C. for a sterilization level of heat cleaning and (ii) the dialysis fluid pump to recirculate the heated PD fluid during the heat cleaning sequence.

10. The PD system of claim 1 , wherein the dialysis fluid pump is a piston pump, a gear pump, or a membrane pump.
