Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018138346A1] The invention relates to a device and a method for automatically venting and filling a catheter which is connected to a blood vessel of a patient with blood, in particular for preparing a hemodialysis and in particular by means of a cannula insertion machine. This is facilitated by the invention in particular by venting and filling a fluid channel which is fluidically connected to the catheter by means of a venting device, by detecting the venting and/or the filling of the fluid channel using a sensor device, which generates a measurement signal that contains information on the venting and/or the filling of the fluid channel, and by controlling the venting device using a controller, which has electric circuits, depending on the measurement signal in order to achieve the automatic venting and/or filling of the fluid channel and the catheter.
