Abstract
A method for determining water losses in a membrane gas exchanger of an apparatus for extracorporeal treatment of blood, comprises: obtaining a sweep gas flow rate (Qgas) in a gas side of a membrane gas exchanger (19); obtaining a water saturation content (Csaturation_out) at a gas outlet (19d) of the membrane gas exchanger (19); calculating the water losses (Qeccor) as a function at least of the sweep gas flow rate (Qgas) and the water saturation content (Csaturation_out).
