Abstract

A method and device that relates to the field of medical fluid management devices, in particular dialysis machines, provided. The method and device is configured to provide for the monitoring and control of medical fluid management devices from a remote site. To do so, the screen content of the output device of a fluid management device is transmitted at least partially to an output device of a remote control unit. The screen content optionally has user interfaces, which can be selected on the remote control device and lead to changes in the control of the transmitting medical fluid management device.
