Abstract
A dialysis authentication and management system comprising at least one dialysis component having at least one authentication component affixed thereon. The dialysis component can be any one of a dialyzer, sorbent cartridge, recharger or any other dialysis component. The authentication component can be selected from the group of a radio-frequency identification marker, a bar code, a one-wire security component, and a wireless authentication component. The authentication system can ensure that all components used are in proper usable condition and/or certified. The system can also manage the recharging of rechargeable components, and optionally manage dialysis therapy.
