Claims16
A heating apparatus for heating a dialysis liquid, comprising:
- a receiving section for receiving a heating bag through which the dialysis liquid can flow for being heated;
- and
- a sensor system for determining or monitoring a deformation of the heating bag or a location of the heating bag in at least one of the heating apparatus or the receiving section of the heating apparatus.
A method for heating dialysis liquid within a dialysis liquid tube set which comprises a flow-through heating bag for the dialysis liquid to be heated, the method comprising:
- inserting the heating bag into a receiving section of a heating apparatus of a medical apparatus;
- and
- selecting at least one of the dialysis liquid tube set or the flow-through heating bag such that a length of the heating bag is smaller than a length of the receiving section which receives the heating bag, along which the receiving section surrounds the heating bag.
