Abstract
A method for controlling the blood glucose level of a patient and periodically calibrating the glucose sensor using a calibration solution. The method controls the level of blood glucose in a patient through an extracorporeal blood circuit by: withdrawing blood from a vascular system in the patient to the extracorporeal circuit; removing ultrafiltrate from the withdrawn blood in the circuit; determining a level of glucose present in the blood based on the removed ultrafiltrate; infusing at least a portion of the removed ultrafiltrate and the withdrawn blood into the vascular system, and infusing insulin into the patient based on the determined level of glucose.
