Abstract
A wearable filtrating artificial kidney device, comprising a transfusion inlet (2), a blood pump (3), an arterial pressure detector (4), a blood filter (7), a venous pressure detector (8) and an air detector (9), wherein the transfusion inlet (2), the blood pump (3), the arterial pressure detector (4), a resin hemoperfusion apparatus (5), an active carbon hemoperfusion apparatus (6), the blood filter (7), the venous pressure detector (8) and the air detector (9) are connected sequentially; a liquid waste outlet of the blood filter (7) is connected with an ultrafiltration control pump (10). Glomerulus filtration can be simulated to achieve the goal of removing toxins and excessive moisture in the blood by virtue of ultrafiltration of the blood filter (7). A dialyzate and a complicated dialyzate circulating device are not used for the device, so that the volume and weight of the device can be reduced greatly, and the device can be worn conveniently. The device is simple in structure, easy in operation and low in cost.
