See full text

Methods for detecting the condition of a catheter providing access to a patient's blood vessel are disclosed in which the blood is supplied to an extracorporeal blood flow circuit. The method includes generating a pressure wave on one side of one of the access points for supplying blood to the extracorporeal blood flow circuit or returning the blood to the patient, then sensing the pressure wave on the other side of the access points. Apparatus for detecting the condition of the catheter are also provided.
