Abstract

The present invention relates to a medical treatment arrangement having at least three device parts, with the first device part being a device part which is not made for the treatment of a patient, with the second device part being made in conjunction with the third device part such that a treatment of a patient can be made with them, with the second device part being made movable relative to the first device part and relative to the third device part, and with provision furthermore being made that the first device part and the second device part and/or the second device part and the third device part being made such that energy and/or data can be unidirectionally or bidirectionally exchanged between them.

Claims (40)

1. A medical treatment arrangement comprising

a) at least one filling device,

b) at least one treatment device, and

c) at least one mobile container device reversibly connectable, and movable with respect, to each of the filling and treatment devices,

wherein the mobile container and treatment devices are configured to carry out only when connected together the complete medical treatment of a patient,

wherein each of the devices has an energy transfer part configured to unidirectionally or bidirectionally transfer energy to another device sufficient to power, or charge a power supply carried by, the other device,

wherein each of the devices has a data transfer part configured to unidirectionally or bidirectionally transfer data between the mobile device and the filling and treatment devices,

wherein the energy transfer part and the data transfer part are configured to transfer energy and data simultaneously, and

wherein one of the devices has a power supply for another of the devices.

2. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the filling and treatment devices is immobile or substantially immobile.

3. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the filling and mobile container devices are configured to carry out a medical blood treatment of a patient.

4. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 3 , wherein the medical blood treatment is a dialysis.

5. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the energy transfer parts transfers energy in a wireless manner.

6. The medical treatment arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein each of the energy transfer parts transfers energy in a wireless manner.

7. The medical treatment arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein at least one of the energy transfer parts transfers energy in a wireless manner by induction.

8. The medical treatment arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the mobile container device has the power supply for another device.

9. The medical treatment arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the mobile container device does not have the power supply for another device.

10. The medical treatment arrangement in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the mobile container device has the power supply as an emergency energy supply for at least one of the filling and treatment devices triggered by failure of energy supply of the filling or treatment device.

11. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the mobile container device has a memory configured to store at least one of patient treatment data and data relating to elements inserted into at least one of the filling and treatment devices.

12. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 11 , wherein the elements are at least one of disposable bags, disposable containers, filters, hoses, and medical treatment cassettes.

13. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the data transfer part of the mobile container device is configured to transfer data to at least one of the filling and container devices when the mobile container device approaches the filling or treatment device.

14. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 further comprising

d) a test device having at least one processor configured to test data transferred from the mobile container device to the filling or treatment device.

15. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 14 further comprising

e) a decision device having at least one processor configured to decide based on results of the test whether the medical treatment is carried out or not.

16. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the mobile container device and the treatment device further has disposables having machine readable markings.

17. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 16 , wherein the machine readable markings are at least one of a 2D matrix, a barcode, and a RFID tag.

18. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein at least one or the devices has at least one mark identifying at least one of the marked device and the other devices.

19. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the devices has at least one interface.

20. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 19 , wherein the at least one interface is at least one of a TFT (LDC) display, an OLED display, and an e-paper display.

21. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the mobile container device has at least one container configured for receiving at least one of fresh medical treatment fluid, used medical treatment fluid, and substitution fluid.

22. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 21 , wherein at least one of the filling and treatment devices has a flow device configured to fill and empty the at least one container.

23. A medical treatment arrangement comprising

a) at least one filling device,

b) at least one treatment device, and

c) at least one mobile container device reversibly connectable, and movable with respect, to each of the filing and treatment devices,

wherein the mobile container device an the treatment device are configured to carry out only when connected together the complete medical treatment of a patient,

wherein each of the devices has an energy-and-data transfer part configured to unidirectionally or bidirectionally transfer energy in a wireless manner to another device sufficient to power, or charge a power supply carried by, the other device, and configured to unidirectionally or bidirectionally transfer data in a wireless manner between the mobile container device and at least one of the filing and treatment devices.

24. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 23 , wherein the energy-and-data transfer part is configured to transfer energy and data in a wireless manner by induction.

25. The medical treatment arrangement according to claim 23 , wherein the energy-and-data transfer part is configured to transfer energy and data simultaneously.
